FSOthers in FSX?

Hi all

Why do I have FS9, FS2000 and FS2002 .exe's in my main FSX folder?
I haven't clicked on them, because I'm unsure what they are.

Thanks :)

It is for older addons that sometime check if FS9.exe is really there, to check if you really chose the correct folder for installing.
Kind of a trick, if you prefer. You can click them, they won't find their files nor registry entries, so they won't work at all.

Thanks

I had never noticed them before, and while I do have FS9 too. I no longer have 2000 or 2002, so I couldn't understand why there were .exe's for those two, especially.
