Windows 7 file access problem

In Windows 7, the configuration file /Gauges/j35/j35_config.ini  is installed as read-only, which means that it will not be updated when you do something in the cockpit. The next time you load the flight, all radio frequencies etc. are reset and the aircraft will be "dark and cold" since all the electrical bus and fuel valve switches default to zero.

The simplest solution is to right-click on either the main Gauges folder or the j35 folder inside it, uncheck the read-only flag, press OK and confirm in the next dialog that you want to apply changes to all files in the folder (you will have to provide Administrator permission to do this).
