FS9 window overrides FSInn and others

I have this unusual problem which started a few days ago. About half way through my flight, FS9 in window mode decides that it wants to be the active window 24/7. This means I can't type in the FSInn chat box or anywhere else as FS9 keeps stealing the active window back. Really bad because obviously key strokes effect FS9, unlike FSInn chat where communication takes place.

 

Any one have a solution? or any suggestions?

I recall focus problems with the earlier version of FSInn.

 

Start out with the information provided in the FSInn Help forum. Look at the please read sticky of that forum. It has two messages that should be checked. Your specific problem isn't mentioned, but various problems unspecified can occur when failing to follow closely the installation steps provided (VIA the same please read sticky).

 

I don't know what might be causing your focus problem. But in conjunction with checking with the information provided by way of the please read sticky, with your followup, include information about your system such as:

 

* OS and Patch Level

* Third party firewall Antivirus Program

* Version of FSInn

  • Not a regular post, but a special
thread/message stuck to the top with special meaning… containing important forum information.

 

For FSInn/VATSIM issues, please test the FSInn Installation sticky and linked FAQ. It really works!
