Help, did not copy original Bing maps file. Trying to delete the two lines of code but can't. Also, not able to restore to first version. Need to change back from the google maps mod to bing so that i can play online. pls help.

It normally caused by antivirus which locks your hosts file. Please have a look at : https://github.com/derekhe/msfs2020-google-map/wiki/FAQ#antivirus
