Relocate game after system crash

Discussion Hub General Discussion

Hi there,

I had to fully reinstall my windows, due to a hardware replacement.

I have a copy of the game through steam. All the files were on a separate hard disk than my main one, so I still have the 100Gb stored. I restored the game in my steam library, and based on what I read on forums, I updated the UserCfg.opt file so that the package location is pointed, on my old folder.

However, the game, looks like still wanting to download again all the 106Gb…

Simple question here: is the game anyway reviewing all the packages, looking like it’s downloading, but not really downloading, or am I just f…ed ?

Or maybe I did just missed something.

Any tip would be welcome !

Thanks a lot

Hi @Hester40MT !

Thanks for all the useful links :slight_smile:

Finally found out my mistake, I pointed to the ‘packages’ subfolder into my MSFS, instead of pointing on the MSFS folder itself…

After a short scan, all the content is available again, and no need to wait a 2 days download.

Have a great day !
