This was a default install with default path. Nothing was custom. Others are reporting this happening on Avsim as well. One person mentioned previous Beta installs needed to be in custom path/folders to avoid this. Wish this had been included in the beta install instructions or at least as a warning?! This is really awful.

We carefully warned players about the risk that a re-install might be necessary for those participating in the beta and suggested using a custom install path for the Pre-Release Test to mitigate this risk in at least three separate places:

1. In the December 2 Development Update Blog when the Pre-Release Test was first announced.
2. In this forum thread explaining how MS Store and Xbox players can join the Pre-Release test.
3. In this forum thread explaining how Steam players can join the Pre-Release test.
