The Registry is basically a database or central repository that holds configuration settings for Windows and other programs that utilize it. We may be adding more functionality in the future so if you have any suggestions please do let us know.įirst of all, let us dispel a few misgivings about this mysterious beast we call the Windows Registry. Some issues may be more related to how the add-on was coded but generally speaking if the add-on requires the correct FSX installation path to exist in the registry (the right way of doing things) then this utility may help. All it is designed to do is provide an easy, safe way to help you correct the FSX registry entry and make sure that the folder path store in the registry matches the actual path on your systems hard drive. This utility will not necessarily fix all your FSX/Registry ills, nor do we claim it does anything special.

Using this utility may avoid the need to reinstall FSX and allows you to restore the path in the registry quickly and easily in the case that you are not confident editing the Registry yourself. The FSX Reg Utility was prepared especially for users with custom setups or who manually copied the FSX installation to another folder or drive and reformatted their drives, but want to retain their FSX installation with all its add-ons. This may in some cases prevent an FSX add-on from working correctly (i.e. But what if the registry entry has been corrupted or deleted when reinstalling Windows?

Many FSX applications and their installers depend on knowing the path to the fsx.exe file as reported in the Windows Registry. We hope it will help you sort out any FSX registry problems and avoid the need to re-install FSX, such as when manually copying a FSX installation to another drive or when the registry entry goes missing for any reason.
