Installing ARTCC Files
« on: April 13, 2021, 02:54:13 PM »
Good afternoon everyone.  I passed my ATC/S1 exam last night, and was sent an e-mail containing a bunch of things to do, and one of them was to download the facility files for my ARTCC (Miami).  So can someone please tell me where I put them, and if I have to rename the extension on them so I can be prepared for my training?  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

If you're using VRC, it shouldn't matter where you put the files as long as you tell VRC where they are. For example, most people will tell you to put them in the VRC/Documents folder, but I'm too lazy to move them so I just leave them in my Downloads folder and tell VRC that's where they are. In the screenshot I attached you can see what mine looks like. All you really have to do is unzip whatever package the files are in so that you can select each individual file. I know VRC can be a pain at the start, so let me know if that doesn't make sense or you have any other questions!
