- Before each update I simply copy my entire community folder to another location. By the time the download on my slow connection is finished I usually know if my “mods” are affected or not, but for the most part I simply copy everything back after the update and check for myself. Depending on how many things you accumulate 1 by 1 may take a long time.
- If you by an airport now and then the same airport is released at a later date for free in equal quality, then that is just how that goes. You can either wait or have it now but not both
- A payware addon not showing up after an update can have many reasons, like sim version it is valid for etc. Usually the developers will release a fix for that sort of thing quickly. Sometimes it may take a little if the ASOBO update changed something major that makes the addon not work and the developer has to figure out what needs to be changed.
