Oh happy day!!! Exactly that was the problem! Now, all is clear. Cause for the problem is Windows 8 and its new online accounts: When you install Windows 8 it forces you to create an online user account (in contrast to all previous Windows versions that use only local user accounts) that enables sharing of Windows settings etc. between several Windows computers. I installed Windows 8 using such an online account ("mi-we_000") and switched back to a good old local account some weeks later. In the meantime I installed FSX and probably when switching to the local account WIndows forgot to delete/re-arrange parts of the old "mi-we_000" folder and to modify the registry...I moved the dll.xml and exe.xml into the AppData folder of my current local account and GSX works excellent now.

I have no idea why the other addons have no problem with the old account folder (a quick registry-search didn't show any strange entries)... but I hope my explanations are helpful for you if other Win8 users have the same problem.

Btw. GSX is a very nice addon and I like it very much. It's great taht it works at any FSX airport. My order will be placed very soon :-)

Thanks again for your extensive help,
Michael

Hi all,

I had similar issues with Windows defender off, Nothing in Internet Options for Trusted/ Untrusted, No antivirus being used and even after adding "Addon Manager" to Windows defender Exception. None of this worked as Couatl was not working.

So, to fix this, I went to (on Win 7), control panel, windows firewall, Advanced setting, Inbound rules and I made sure that Couatl Scripting rule is enabled.

I really dont know if this is a fix but it worked for me.

Thanks..
