How to find your Community folder

When updating a product you may need to locate your Community folder. This folder stores the files required to show the product in the simulator.

 

If you happened to use the default location for your installation, then you can find it here:

For the Windows Store install:

C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\Packages\ Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\

For the Steam install:

C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\Packages\

Microsoft.FlightDashboard_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\

Important: Windows 10 by default hides the “AppData” folder, so you will have to go to “View” in the menu of File Explorer, and select “Hidden items” so as to see it.

For the Custom install:

If you happened to use a custom location for your Flight Simulator installation, then proceed there.
