This Is Not Good, very Serious Problem Here - Addon Manager Disappears
canadagoose:
I think this is a pretty serious problem. Last week the Addon Manager was working and I had access to all my purchased airports, 14 to be exact, as well as GSX. Now I go into FSX and I cannot access any of my Purchased Airports as well as GSX (what I mean is there are no buildings or runways, just Jetways, totally unuseable). GSX, to me it adds a world of realism to flight simming, but in the end is all eye candy to me anyway. I would not necessarily miss it since I use it for Pushback (I can get away with SHIFT P). But the fact that I need the addon manager in order to use my Purchased Airports is absurd to say the least. I understand FSDT's registration process as a stop against pirating and so forth, but there must be an alternate means for me to make use of my purchases if I cannot have the addon manager active on my computer. Judging by the posts I see in this forum with regard to the "Missing Addon Manager", I would think this a major Issue that needs to be addressed by FSDT, and soon. I have looked at all the possible fixes that "Umberto" has suggested in these threads, the Microsoft Visual ++cc stuff, the antivirus precautions, which I have setup, the uninstall of GSX, Addon Manager, bglmanx.dll, the couatl thing. I've tried them all. I still do not see the Addon Manager or the GSX menu under FSX Addons. So, as I said above I really don't care as much about having use of GSX as much as I would love for FSDT to find a way for me to get my investment value back in the Purchased Airports. Sorry if I sound like an unhappy customer here, but I am. Very much so, and disappointed & frustrated with that annoying Addon Manager. I do think FSDT products are outstanding though and I probably will purchase again in the future if they can either change the registration process or fix that darn Addon Manager.
Best Regards,
Tom

Further information. I can confirm that couatl does load along with SODE and bglmanx when I run FSX. No different than any other FSX start in the past. So, I don't see why I would all of a sudden be without the Addon Manager and GSX menus under FSX Addons. I have not looked into the simconnect angle or the make up of the EXE.xml and DLL.xml files which I do not have much experience with.
