Cannot change weather during flight

Good Day,

Since yesterday, I cannot change weather during flight. The weather icon on the top menu has disappeared. both Live traffic and Multiplayer are set to off.

Are you still part of a group for which you weren’t the host?

Did you load a saved flight?

NO, never been.

No. Just a new created flight.

It sounds like you’re on live players, but since you’ve turned live weather and multiplayer off, that can’t be the case.
Maybe the weather is turned off on the quick menu? Select configure and check if the weather is activated.

I have the same issue, when I DID load a saved flight. Why does that matter?

That happened to me once after I had tried out multiplayer for the first time. I was able to solve it by resetting the menu settings in all GENERAL sub-menus to default (remember your settings first) and restarting the sim.
I have a suspicion that when you switch off multiplayer in the GENERAL menu, sometimes the weather controls will remain locked out. That’s just a wild guess, though, in lieu of a better explanation. Anyway, I hope it helps!

Thank you, it seems this is the issue. I will reset to default and see if it works.

You might have to manually switch on the weather icon in the in-flight menu bar afterwards again or reset this as well. I didn’t experiment too much with it, since I was just glad I somehow got it to work again.

Reseting to default solved the problem. Thank you.

Happy to hear that! It’s a weird issue. Definitely wouldn’t hurt to raise it at Zendesk again as well. I did at the time, but they apparently suspected a corrupted install and I don’t know if they’ve investigated further.
