You need to select the install folder. The default is "C:\Program Files\MX Simulator".

That default is what you want to keep it at, it's the install folder which all of the game files is written to and ran from. Your personal folder is just for add-on stuff like tracks and skins.

If you could, that would help. What version did you have before 1.7? I don't think 1.7 has all of the updates from the other updates (like all of the zzzx.saf files etc.). So you might have to go in order from the version of your main game installer, installing the updates sequentially after that.

Jlv would be able to confirm that, I'm not 100% sure that's how it works.

Send me your order info via PM or email and I'll send a full 1.7 installer. I need the name, address, phone number or email address from the order.

When you start the game look in the lower right corner, it'll either say the version number or the snapshot date.
