Jason Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hi, I'm unable to select the 'current_wx_snapshot.txt' on the Server Settings as the main folder isn't showing up in my Homegroup so I can select it. When I go to the AppData folder it doesn't give me the option to share the folder,but as I go through the folders to the 'current_wx_snapshot.txt' the file shows it shared? Is there any work around? It does show the Weather data file not found, I know why but cant rectify it because of the above. How does this affect me in using EFBv2? Apologises for having to post this when I know what the issue is but can't sort it Thanks Jason serverLogfile.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but maybe this question should better be asked in the ActiveSky forum. -> How to access the data file from remote (or similar) Or maybe in any of the Windows forums. It's not that we don't want to help, but (with all respect) this is beyond the scope of EFB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 I'll try them but I'm currently using the demo version and haven't been able to use it yet? I only found the issue when I'd installed V2 as it wasn't no issue with V1. Thanks anyway Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayProudfoot Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Jason, If you open Explorer and locate Network for the PC where you have AS16 installed what folders do you see that are shared? I have Users, [username], as16_p3d and Weather. The last one points directly to the folder containing current_wx_snapshot.txt. Give us more info and we can help although the AS16 help document should already describe how to share the relevant folders.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
