Couatl not running

Thanks

What I meant is after reinstalling gsx2, I start P3D5 in the normal way.
I start a flight , GSX2 is Ok and appear in the P3D menu. After the flight ( 1 or 2 it depends ). I stop P3d5 by clicking on the exit button.

If I use my computer the same day or another day ( Turned off from last flight), I start p3D5 , select plane and airport, everything load normally. However , when I go to addon in P3D5 menu to use the GSX2, GSX2 is not there.

All other addons are there except GSX2. So I exit p3D5, remove GSX2 via windows uninstall, reinstall GSX2,  live update is run automatically.

restart P3D5, go to addons menu, GSX2 is there.

I don't have problem with other addons such as FSUIPc, FS2crew UGCX, Utlive, RAAS, etc.. they are start at each P3D5 start.

This is surely entirely unnecessary. I'm fairly sure what is fixing the problem is the FSDT Live Update, which is also resetting some wrong registry entries either mistakenly set by another add-on, or by Windows itself, sometimes just because the sim crashed.

So, next time it happens, try doing JUST the FSDT Live Update, don't reinstall anything.

Hi Alberto

thanks for your help.
However, the sim is not crashing at all. It just couatl is not working and GSX2 is not appearing in the P3D5 menu.

You are right Live update restart couatl when it is run and it is a quick solution But this is not suppose to be run every time before starting P3D5.

Do you have any other suggestion ?

thanks

There's not much we can do if another add-on is forcing the sim in a wrong compatibility setting, or another add-on is making the sim crash, so Windows itself is setting a wrong compatibility mode that shouldn't be used.

Couatl and GSX runs perfectly and are designed and tested to run with DEFAULT compatibility settings, that's what the FSDT Live Update does: it restores the compatibility settings in the registry for P3D to go back to default as installed, precisely for the reason to defend itself against other add-ons messing with something they shouldn't.

Something you might try, is to disable every other add-on, and see if you are still required to run the updater each time.

HI

I did what you said.
NO success.

I still need to reinstall GSX2 before starting P3D5.

I gave up
