Your Updater is old.

This because you should NEVER run the Couatl_updater2.exe but, instead, run the Couatl_updater.exe ( there IS a reason why we put a link to it on your Desktop, so you don't run the wrong one by mistake ), because what the Couatl_updater.exe does, is to download the latest updater2 and start it. If you keep launching the Couatl_updater2, it cannot "overwrite itself", so you will always get the version which came with the product you installed.

ALWAYS run the Couatl_updater.exe, which has a shortcut on your Desktop, and read my previous post about possibly having a Beta version still installed, which can only be updated manually, with the link I provided.

Hello Umberto:

1. I used the link you provided to get the latest updater and placed it on my desktop.  The properties indicated a creation date of 10/1/20. 
2. I then rebooted windows and deleted the 2 Qlmlib files you stated in the other post.
3. I ran the updater again.  It appeared like the updater updated more items then before, but it still stopped with the same error message other people identified in this post.

I don't have a "beta" version of any FSDT scenery that I know of.
So I am still stuck!  So far I am still able to run all my FSDT scenery except KJFK V2 which has no SODE jetways.

Thanks for your help!

I copied the live updater file from my desktop to the addon folder to overwrite the existing file and it ran successfully with no errors.  So I might be ok now.

The only issue I have now are the default jetways in KJFK V2.  Not sure what happened to the SODE jetways I had before.  Should I just download the scenery again and install?

Thanks again!

Which is strange, since there's no Couatl_updater "file" anywhere in your Desktop ( unless you place it manually there ), our installer will only place a shortcut TO the Couatl_updater.exe in the Addon Manager folder.

Be sure you remove any GSX profile you might have created from *before* we added SODE jetways to JFK. The file might be located here:

%APPDATA%\Virtuali\GSX\KJFK*.INI
