Msfs 2020 how to link addons from another disk to the sim?

My main disk for msfs 2020 is a 1TB SSD and the addon is almost full for the original community folder! So I’m wondering if I can create another community folder in another disk and “link” all the addons to the sim? Just like Prepar3D that you can manually install addons from your custom folder? So any possible to have more than one community folders in more than one disks but working together in the sim?

The tool AddonsLinker is what you’re looking for :slight_smile:

It allows you to define multiple locations and structures of addon folders and links them all into the community folder. You can also create presets with only selected addons loaded etc.

Thank you for the rapid answer! So I don’t have to clean up all my existing addons in the original community folder? I can use MSFS Addons Linker to link another folder and let my folder and original community work together? Sorry about my English, really appreciate!

Yes, the tool ignores whatever is already in the Community folder but allows you to link additional sources.

I always suggest to keep some folder structure for your addons (which isn’t possible inside the Community folder).
Something like

  • aircraft
    – jets
    – props
  • airports
    – america
    – europe

And then place the actual addon folders inside such a structure.
