Clicking on this button will give you more options such as changing the installation path.Ĭlick the BROWSE button to bring up the browse screen.
If you however read what is on the screens you will see a button labelled MORE OPTIONS on the screen. If you just click next, next, next when installing, Flight Simulator X will be installed into the Program Files directory. Adding aircraft and scenery later will be mission on its own, so spare you some hair pulling later and do it right the first time around!
The reason being is that from Windows Vista upwards, Microsoft has become dead set on protecting us from ourselves! Access to the Program Files directory is forbidden for us mere mortals! Even system administrators have difficulty removing files from the Program Files directory. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT install Flight Simulator X into its default location of Program Files. Hold on to your horses! If you do not do it the right way, then the Flight Simulator X files will not update correctly giving you all kinds of display problems! When it is time to reinstall Flight Simulator X, we all want to get the job done as soon as possible.
