No buildings even Addon Manager is showing airports as ACTIVE **SOLVED**

Hi,
Hi,

All my FSDT (KORD, KFLL, KLAX, KLAS, KDFW, CYVR) airports worked well until this morning after I installed the free Greystone 17FL airport.
I confirmed positively 1 message (I think from cuatl, but not sure) after FSX start.

As a result I had no buildings on Greystone and on the other FSDT airports any more and the Addon Manager menu was missing.
After deleting 4 bglmanx.dll entries in the fsx.cfg and new start, the Addon Manager is back as there are the buildings on Greystone.
However the other FSDT airports don't show buildings, even the Addon Manager is listing them all as "Installed and ACTIVE".

There is only one bglmanx.dll line now in the fsx.cfg

What can I do?

BRgds

FSX Gold, DX9, Addon Manager 3.0.0.4

Do you have BOTH the Addon Manager AND the "Couatl powered products" menu under the FSX "Addons" menu ?

Good question!
No, no Cuatl ... menu under FSX Addons menu.
How do I get this cuatl function back?

Thanks for instructions and best regards
Ernst

The most common case is a defective antivirus, which might be fixed this way:

Be sure you use the CURRENT version of the installer.

- DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL with the antivirus entirely OFF

- Uninstall GSX. Reply YES when asked if you want to remove the Addon Manager and the Couatl Engine. Reply YES to both questions.

- TURN OFF your antivirus. Don't just exit from its interface, but turn off the real time protection. Actual wording changes between products, however, it's the option to scan every file that gets open in real time, without user intervention.

- Reinstall GSX with the Antivirus TURNED OFF. Don't launch FSX yet.

- Configure the antivirus to exclude the following files from scanning:

YourFSXFolder\bglmanx.dll
YourFSXFolder\fsdreamteam\Couatl\couatl.exe

YourFSXFolder it's usually C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X, if you installed it in the default folder.

- Now you can turn the antivirus back on, and launch FSX.

- Check you are seeing BOTH the "Addon Manager" menu AND the "Couatl powered products" menu under the "Addons" menu

Sorry, but I have a problem in understanding your reply.
What sort of current installer should I download?
I have no GSX installed.
Virus scanning never was problem with my system and all worked fine before the Greystone install.
Should I possibly uninstall/reinstall any scenery to get cuatl back?

Thank you for letting me know more specific what to do.
