Which approaches help you more when memorizing new material?

I am trying to learn computers and how to use Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. I have played it a lot but it seems like I am always at the beginning, the depth of complication to the game seems to go on and on. That is besides just flying the planes.

Learning about how computers work has been pretty bad. To make things work I have to know about file paths, I cannot memorize them or figure them out. My friend who I play MSFS with reminds me to have fun. That cures me, I feel better again then after a while I need a reminder. I am not interested in computers or settings in games. Learning something that is not fun is the hardest. Learning about something I love is super easy.

Understandable. It's what makes coding and operating systems so challenging. Some if it I find quite stimulating, while other aspects of it either bore me to tears or drive me crazy.

Though the only reason I actually got into computers was because of a game. I couldn't even get it to boot up in Windows 3.1. Had to understand how to create sufficient "conventional memory" to get it running. After that I was thrilled to be playing lots of games with such requirements. And the rest is history...lol.
