Profile reset today (2023 February 10)

@LeanBinkie50829 @atcogl
For future reference (and to all other interested parties asking about a back up of MSFS game profile):

On the windows store PC version it is possible to keep a back up of many of the profile settings including log book, flight hours and controller settings.

The “wgs” folder found in

C:\Users\your USERNAME\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\

contains all this information.

I quite regularly keep a copy of this entire “wgs” folder (and all sub directories) elsewhere on my PC so as I can restore my settings if things go awry. (It has saved me a few times from losing all my log book hours when transitioning from beta build back to live build!)
