Would that be without any technical consequence?

please do not, the bin folder currently contains things like the updater, modifying your install will only lead to bad things. 

thanks

a simple repair will bring the files back

No simple repair if there's no dcs_updater I guess 🙂

Can i just confirm both the Bin and Bin MT folders are still required.

The reason i ask is that i noticed DLSS files in both, i was running DLSS setting K but after the recent update its gone back to the inferior C.

I was about to add K back into the folder when i noticed both the Bin and Bin MT have DLSS files in them.

No, bin-MT is not needed since the bin is the main folder and contains MT version anyway. If you have any shorcut to bin-MT just change to bin instead.

Having said that the updates will bring it back for shortcut compatibility reasons so no need to mess with it.

Everytime you patch DCS, you need to replace those DLSS files again as they will be overwritten.

Yeah, same as replacing the Viper 2.0 mod, NV Inspector is set to insert them anyway so no biggie. I dont understand why they are not using Preset K as its far superior to the other Presets and allows very specific (in %) ratios of scaling.
