Hi @cole7033,

Can you move the window around when it is displayed? Does the checkbox work (I mean can you check/uncheck)?

The message was put live yesterday evening before COB and was tested internally to make sure it worked fine.

Are others having the same issue as the OP?

Best regards,

Eric / Asobo

Same problem here.

I can move the window around and make resize it but clicking "OK" of the checkbox doesn't do anything.

The click areas seem to be offset by a given amount as clicking on the marked areas solved the problem for me.

I've put the MSFS window in fullscreen when launching, so it may be related to that somehow.

The render scale at 100% and the SIM resolution must match Windows one has been a mantra since day one, every other changes made the Dev UI unstable/difficult to use, so I learn to live with that

It looks like the Windows built-in scaling function can have an impact too.

@Sasa - by any chance have you set this system parameter to something other than 100%?

Additionally, can you send us your UserCfg.opt file please?

Its location will depend on your version of the game.

Also it would be good to know of this message applies to all types of SPB files or for mission SPB files only.

Well the message states "Mission packages". Isn't it precise enough?

Maybe this can help? The Asobo hiring popup had the same issues
