    Switching Between FSX and TCG in the Same Session

    Quick question for those of you who use both FSX and TCG.

    I'm having issues getting TCG to work right after I have warmed up and/or played with FSX (GSX will not get any input from the GC2).

    I quit FSX completely and everything appears to be correct (GC2 is connected to Bluetooth, and my COM port is verified in both Bluetooth settings and Device Manger). Still, GSX shows no input.

    Right now, my work around is to reboot the PC, and having to do this is not the end of the world.

    I'm pretty sure that I have been able to transition from FSX to TCG without a reboot in the past. I remember the exact sequence of things (e.g. starting Protee then GSX) was important.

    I'm just wondering if you guys who use both software packages have any insight.

    FYI, PC is a spare-no-expense brand new machine that I purpose built. i7, 32GB RAM, GTX 1080, Samsung Pro 1TB SSD.

    Has your machine recently done a windows update, the latest round of windows updates changed the Bluetooth interface.
    I don’t have FSX but wrote an app to look at the gc2 data, it ran fine whilst TGC was up and running and switching was fine, but since my windows update I have to force a disconnect in the app before it reads the data again....could be a clue!

    I am after a FSX dongle, so if I get one will run some tests.
