VaicomPro creates unused Saved Games\DCS & G:\DCS World (Stable) folders


Recommended Posts

Posted

Trying to clean up a trivial but somewhat irritating item on my gaming (aka DCS) computer.  I'm currently running ONLY DCS.OpenBeta but whenever I launch VoiceAttack w/ VCP it automatically creates a Saved Games/DCS (stable) folder (with Mods & Scripts sub-folders) under Saved Games and a root directly "DCS World" folder (also with Mods & Scripts sub-folders).


At one point I did have both Stable and OpenBeta installed on this machine but ultimately uninstalled Stable... the problem appears to be that VCP still thinks I have Stable installed so every time I launch VoiceAttack it goes ahead and creates these unused/orphaned "stable" folders.

 

It's not hurting anything per se but does vex my OCD tendencies.


Anyone know if there's a registry setting or some configuration file I can edit somewhere where I can tell VCP that I only have OpenBeta installed but not the Stable version?   I've been through the LCTL+LALT+C configuration GUI but can't seem to find anything that would sort this out...

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes there is a registry setting for Eagle Dynamics that has install paths for both OB and stable installs. I am not on my PC at the moment but I think if you do a search for Eagle Dynamics you should find it.

I will have a look on my machine tomorrow to find the key path.
