FSDT airports all black, buildings missing **SOLVED**

Hi

Yesterday I ran the FSDT updater but did not fly. Today all airports are black. Tried the add-on manager to see if i needed to register airports again; but no add-on drop down manager for FSDT, only FSUIPC. I also ran ORBX AEC to include, then to exclude KCLT; made no difference.

Help appreciated!

The most likely cause for this is your antivirus mistakenly blocking the download. Some antivirus are so bugged they block files just because they are new, basically blocking every kind of updater.

- Configure the antivirus to exclude the whole Addon Manager folder from scanning.

- Run the FSDT Live Update again.

Thanks for your reply; I am just getting back to this. Using W10, have defender turned off, and firewall off. Ran Updater again. No solution; I still have no dropdown addon manager. I looked at the scenery library in P3Dv4; and all FSDT airports, and Washington X, although checked, they are faded out perhaps indicating not working? I tried to check them but makes no change.

Sorry to bother about this.

I haven't said to just "turn off" the antivirus/firewall. I said to configure them to exclude the Addon Manager folder from scanning. Some antivirus looks as if they are turned off, but their service is still running, so they can still block files, that's why you MUST explicitly exclude the Addon Manager folder from scanning.

Try that.

OK thanks. I don't know how. Will have to get my son to do it when he is here in 2 weeks. i will let you know!
