How to Use CFG Editor

̶0;Flight Simulator 2004̶1; is a first-person flight simulation program developed and released by Microsoft in 2003. Power users who want to optimize or otherwise modify the program can edit the ̶0;fs9.cfg̶1; file, which contains graphical and other settings. For those uncomfortable with making configuration changes in a text editor, a program called CFG Editor is available; it is a program that searches for and opens the configuration file in a user interface that has a built-in search function, as well as section and key editing.
