Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Any time I restart the sim, the settings have reverted to incorrect bindings, no matter whether a newer controller profile has been “applied to all aircraft” or set as default. Changing to any other aircraft makes the incorrect binding show up again. Switching to a different binding “sticks” to each aircraft, applied individually, for that sim session only, but reverts upon a new session.

I FOUND A FIX!! Apply to all aircraft working seems to be part of a general issue where some people’s connection to the cloud for certain things stops working. Maybe something is getting corrupted? Only happened to me when I installed on a second machine.

Anyhow, not without drawbacks (logbook gets reset), but this did the trick, “apply to all” working and everything saving like it should now:

Moved to User Support Hub since a solution has been marked.

I think this should still be bug-logged. The “solution” is a workaround that involves losing data. Can this not be addressed by the dev team?

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Not able to assign custom controls to all aircraft. Also I’m finding that a lot of times they are not saved to any aircraft.
