I recently added a larger drive (different letter) and moved most of my Flightsim related stuff to it.
The old drive has been set offline to avoid (and expose) any dependencies I may have missed.
Simlink is on the new drive and has been running fine, I cannot now update it as it looks for the old drive. To make some things work I did update paths in the registry including anything related to navigraph and so far so good.
The installer dialogue complains and suggest to update the path though does not offer an option to do this before closing.
There must be a path name coded somewhere else though I haven’t found it so far.
I wanted to let you know that changing the drive letter can affect all the programs that were installed using the old drive letter. This happens because Windows uses the registry to store application details. To resolve this issue, I recommend that you download and reinstall the Simlink application. It should fix the problem.
Thank you for the response, I have resolved the problem by bringing the previous drive back online and uninstalling the older version with it present. Then taking the disk offline and installing the latest version to the new drive so all is good.
My point is that of maybe 10 applications moved from the old drive to the new one (with a different drive letter) then Simlink is the only one that still relied on a link to the old drive letter after normal actions (registry edit, look for config file settings etc).
The installer to update to the latest version also did not allow the choice of a different drive instead closing at this point.
It’s probably not going to be a common situation, it would be good though to know where the drive letter reference is stored if it isn’t in the registry?
