Sorry, just can't find this file. There must be one somewhere because there used to be definitions for 4 aircraft.

Aircraft definitions are all in the settings file in that version, and it's in the location under Documents and Settings in WinXP. Feel free to just post it here if you want us to rescue it for you and obtain your aircraft definitions.

Ok, I've got it to load the skydata by opening a route, but the aircraft definitions are still missing. What is the file called that they are written to?

The version of SD on the old & new laptop are the same: 1.4.4.26597

I moved the whole of my documents file from the old to the 'new' laptop. Both run windowsXP. I noticed that on the path at the top of the explorer window it shows: documents and settingsewuser\mydocuments\skydemon even tho' I changed 'new user' to 'my name', as on the previous laptop. It does show my name when I go back up the path to show the folders 'guest' 'my name' etc



Also I tried coping the files back to the old laptop to see if it would work- it did. I guess this is another windows gremlin!

What version of SkyDemon was used to produce the settings file you are attempting to restore, and what version are you using now that you hope will read the settings file?

So, given that the files are in the correct place, why doesn't the new install of SD find them?

That folder is where settings are stored, which up until the forthcoming 2.0 release included aircraft definitions.

All chart, terrain and custom data, routes and logs are stored within your personal Documents folder, and beginning in SkyDemon 2.0 this is where aircraft definitions are stored too.

On my setup it was documents and settingsame\my documents\skydemon



I copied everything in my documents folder to my new laptop, installed skydemon, it seems to find the custom data & license file ok but not the air data or aircraft info files? Why is this?

In a similar folder under C:\Documents and Settings\[Name]\Application Data\.
