Restore your axis and input configuration after a new windows installation or on a new PC - this is how


Recommended Posts

If you re-install DCS everything still works fine, as the inputs are saved in your "saved games" folder and the device IDs did not change.

But this is not the case if you re-install windows. The device IDs of joystick, throttle etc will be changed. So you cant just copy your old "input" folder back to your "saved games" folder. You need to batch rename and match the old device IDs to the new auto generated device IDs.

You can use a batch renamer like ant renamer to do that.

For somebody who has many modules a windows re-installation could cause hours of manually binding axis and hotkey buttons again.

I had to re-install windows recently, so I made a tutorial video about how to restore the previous configuration.
