YSFlight window not showing up

Post by Bmontour26 »

So I was clearing up my temp file space on my computer, then I opened my YSFlight window (d3d9) and it was invisible. but it was there. I then proceeded to redownload and extract, with the same result. Then I tried different versions but those didn't work either. Thanks in advance.

I had those errors in YS2018 whenever I send a shortcut to desktop. I don't know why.

In your "Documents/YSFLIGHT.COM/YSFLIGHT/config" folder, delete prevwindowsize.cfg

I had the same problem with the 2018 version running on Windows 10 pro. YS started minimized and whatever I did, it would not maximize. Also when I hovered the mouse over the icon on the taskbar, the thumbnail just showed a white screen. I'm not sure if it was a windows problem or a YSflight problem, but pressing Win+Shift+M fixed it, and I've not had the problem since.

If you're using the 2018 version you should downgrade to 2015 as it's the most stable of the most recent versions (after 2014).
