markturner1960 Posted February 15, 2023 Posted February 15, 2023 So I was wondering why things were different with DCS as I was flying, checked all my special menu settings and many had changed from what I had carefully set.......this seems to be in the laste week, but possibly after last update.....anyone else notice this? And can ED make this NOT happen? Its seriously irritating System specs: PC1 :Scan 3XS Ryzen 5900X, 64GB Corsair veng DDR4 3600, EVGA GTX 3090 Win 10, Quest Pro, Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo monitor.

Its always worth making a backup of your config folder somewhere just in case. Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

And can ED make this NOT happen? Its seriously irritating unfortunately this is something that happens in complex software designing. i am a sys admin and we keep change logs for all changes. to alleviate the issues with dcs is i keep my own change logs including screenshots. this also occasionally happens with nvidia drivers. an update will introduce a change, being a removal or an addition of a feature. dcs is trying to improve and this happens. windows 10 to 11 is a good example.

How many times of the login failed attempts will make DCS wipes out the user configs? Thanks.

some1 Posted February 15, 2023 Posted February 15, 2023 I think any single failed authorization would cause DCS to quietly wipe out all unauthorized modules settings from the "special" tab. Normally they are saved with other options in the main 'options.lua' file in your DCS settings directory (Saved Games\DCS\Config). Would be nice if ED finally fixed this.
