    Answers to your Frequently Asked Questions

    Question: When I try to register my copy of EZ-VFR, Flight Simulator appears to lock up. How can I register?

    Answer: Flight Simulator is not really locked up.

    However, when Flight Simulator is running in Full Screen mode, EZ-VFR is unable to draw the Registration dialog box.

    To get around the problem, press ALT + ENTER or select Views | Full Screen from the menu to remove the check mark. This cancels the full screen mode of Flight Simulator. If you see a check mark in front of Full Screen of the View menu, then Flight Simulator is running in Full Screen mode. Clicking it, or pressing ALT + ENTER to remove the check mark.

    When not in Full Screen mode, you can access the Abacus | EZ-VFR menu and type your registration number. After you have registered, you can revert to Full Screen mode by pressing the Alt + Enter keys or selecting View | Full Screen from the menu.

    NOTE: Press the Escape key [ESC] to return to Flight Simulator if it appears to be locked-up while trying to register while in Full Screen.
