  7. FlyInside will attempt to detect your flight simulator installation. If it cannot find your simulator, browse the "Browse..." button and navigate to the folder where your simulator is installed. For Flight Simulator X, look for the folder containing FSX.exe For Prepar3D, look for the folder containing Prepar3D.exe.

You can start FlyInside FSX using the "FlyInside FSX" shortcut or FlyInside P3D using the "FlyInside P3D" shortcut. To start your simulator normally (without VR), simply use your "Flight Simulator X" or "Prepar3D" shortcuts as normal.
