The Free Flight doesn't work anymore for me

Unfortunately, I have to report a strange error for which I couldn’t find a suitable solution in the search function…

I had to replace the old C drive with the operating system with a new one, and that worked fine so far. However, I haven’t found a solution for accessing the “old” MSFS 24, which I had previously installed on an external SSD.

So now I’ve installed MSFS 2024 on this new C drive, since I now have plenty of space there, and this installation also worked well.

What’s no longer working, however, are the free flights. I started the first one in South America and tried it out successfully. Now I want to take off somewhere else, and that’s where the problem begins: wherever I want to take off, the program always resets the aircraft to the first airport in South America. When I then try to start the flight, I land about 100 meters above the original takeoff point and crash. During activities, e.g. For example, if you’re exploring Barcelona, ​​this problem doesn’t arise…

Thank you in advance for any suggestions for solutions.

I’ve found… well, sort of a solution:

I delete the “CustomFlight.FLT” file in the Custom Flight folder after each free flight. This also works during operation as soon as the previous flight has ended.
