    Yes that is correct but will not stop you if negative, grab the plugins you need.

    Can you please post a picture of what you mean, is it asking for a patch path?

    As per the popup advice you just need to ensure the save game directory is the one your install is actually using.

    Enter the exact path to your game directory as in the image below, changing "YourName" to the username from your computer. Patch DCS.jpg
