How can I save or backup my equipment configuration settings in xPlane 10?

Question

When I complete an xPlane software update, all of my equipment configurations are gone and have to be reset. I would like to have a backup of the configuration in order to re-establish the original settings after a software update.

Hi Ray,

I am not with Laminar Research; just a flight simmer.

What version of X-Plane 10 are you running?  The last (final) release before x-plane 11 was released was version 10.51.  There has been no other releases.  Download this latest version and my interpretation of your problem should no longer occur.

X-plane 10 and X-Plane 11 will not mix if trying to update from 10 to 11 into the same directory.  Completely different programs/software.

If your "configuration " problem is for different aircraft, X-Plane 11 now has the ability to save for each aircraft situation. X-Plane 10 cannot perform this same function
