+![FlightCore's Repair tab](../../images/flightcore-repair.png)
+
+This tab is very useful to both you and anyone that might be trying to help you, with both general Northstar options and FlightCore specific options. The _"Disable all but core mods"_ button allows you to quickly disable all mods that are installed after installing Northstar, allowing you to quickly see if a mod you have installed is causing issues. _"Force reinstall Northstar"_ does what the name implies, completely reinstalling Northstar in the event of something going wrong with your Northstar files.
+
+The FlightCore specific options include _"Force delete temp download folder"_, which will forcibly delete a folder that FlightCore creates to place a mod before it finishes fully installing. This process is normally automatically done, but the option is there in the event of the automatic feature failing, and as a way to clean things up manually. The last option of the Repair screen is the _"Delete FlightCore persistent store"_ button. This button may sound complicated, but it essentially just resets FlightCore settings such as install path, in case you ever want to/need to "reset" FlightCore.
