have problems with my microsoft force feed back 2. 50% of the times I start a flight the force feed back does not work. I have discovered by chance that tapping on the windows button usually restored the force feed back.
I do not see any strange things on the window focus logger, nor in the Condor logbook.
Someone any idea what the cause may be. With a borrowed equal joystik the problem is exactly the same.

Jan, Im a bit surprised you only discovered this now, this must be among the oldest bugs with the oldest known workarounds in condor, its been present since the earliest V1 releases
Indeed, alt tabbing or using the start key to change focus usually fixes the ffb issue (until a patch permanently fixes it).

Hi JJ
I have never had this problem in V1. At the beginning of this year I noticed it in V2. The problem seemed solved after a V2 ubdate. Because I live somewhere else in the summer and work there on another computer and a stick without ffb I did not notice that the problem is back again.
I also had a lot of contact at the beginning of the year about this problem with the Dutch from the Condor community, nobody has pointed out that it is an old bug and the existence is the workaround.
I have also posted the problem a few months ago on mantis and on the developer forum but this was not responded to, you would expect it to be indicated that it is an old problem with a workaround.
It can be solved with the Windows button, so the subject is closed for me.
Sincerely; Jan

I never had it in V1 either. I'll have to remember the windows button trick.
