    MSFS Control Profile Backuptool - Image 1

    Description

    Hello together^^

    Last version: 0.9.6

    Before i say anything:
    1. PLEASE  READ THE INCLUDED README CAREFULLY!!! I will see on the question if you did read it or not^^. Everything is written in there.
    2. Support is limited to my free time. Dont get angry if response is slow.
    3. Im not responsible for any damage caused by using the app.
    4. Dont use it if youre unsure please. You should know what you are doing.

    That being said, this is what the app does:

    1. Identify your control profiles and display them by name and hardware
    2. create backups of your profiles and play them back if you loose it (very rare since they are backed up in the cloud. But i can happen, i had it twice.)
    3. share your profiles with others or use them from others. THE HARDWARE HAS TO MATCH obviously. Please note, im not 100% sure if steam and MS store is compatible. In theory it should but i have not tested it.

    -------------------------------------------------------

    There are some things you HAVE to understand:

    Steam users please read the last part/disclaimer in the readme.txt carefully. Dont use the app if you dont understand that you are a test subject more or less ^^

    - Always only revert the profile via this app. If you have created a backup with this app, it will copy all files in its original form into a single folder you choose. You cannot simply use one of those files and put it back into the profile folder for technical reasons. It will surely not work on Store/Gamepass MSFS like this (because the way how cloudsync works), not sure about steam. It may actually work there.

    This means you have to select a current profile in the app and then the backup profile you want to bring back in the next step/section. The revert button will then write the contents of the backup file into the current/selected profile. So in the end its a content swap, not anything else.

    - The Sim has to be CLOSED when reverting a profile

    I have added various safety mechanisms but the end user is responsible, please understand that. I check for following things:

    - if the scanned file has XML content with DEVICENAME tag the app counts it as profile.So in theory other games profiles can be shown if you have selected a wrong folder. This is especially for Steam users, where the Sim probably only has numbers and letters in the folder name in Steam. MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT FOLDER.

    - i check also if you select 2 different hardwares when you are reverting a profile. Like you have a Yoke profile selected but intend to overwrite it with a Throttle profile.

    - i check that you cannot backup into the chosen original profile folder since this can mess things up. Still make sure you are outside any MSFS folder whn backing up profiles!

    as a last check, when reverting i make a copy of the original file you have chosen and put it with file extension .OLD into the backup folder. So eventually you have more files in the backup folder than in the original, just keep this in mind if you wonder why.

    Like said, please read the readme file carefully.

    PS: If you are searching for a way to import 2020 presets into 2024 you may try this app! But be aware that its not from me, so i cant give support for it.

    - added more clipboard functions. To make it easyer to use the 2024 import app linked in the app dexcription, you can now copy the path to clipboard to easily insert it to that app - fixed missing revert icon
