If you have this exact issue, you shouldn't have posted a new thread. I removed it so, unless your issue is different, don't open a new thread when a new one discussing exactly the same issue is already opened and you even posted on it.

As discussed in this thread, we isolated the problem although we haven't been able to replicate it yet, I could only see it on an user's system via remote assistance. For those affected, it results in the inability to make a "normal" Restart IF the airport cache has already been built from a previous session

If the cache is rebuilt, Restart seems to work ( or, at least, it worked with no issues on that user system I had a chance to try ) so, as TEMPORARY fix, we released a small update that for the time being will always trigger a cache rebuild.

This, depending on your system speed and the number of sceneries you have installed, will like result in a slower Restart. To speed it up as best as possible, I suggest adding all folders you have sceneries installed to the Antivirus Exclusions, which will bring down the cache regeneration time quite a bit. Again, this is just a temporary solution that should help you get going while we find what's causing this.

Similar Problem here - When I delete the cache folder in ProgramData\Virtuali GSX starts as usual. When I restart the P3d v5.2 it don´ts appears. When I try to delete the cache again I get the message "this folder is using by another program". In the task Manager shows  couatl-engine is already running, seems not to be closed during Sim-shutdown. When I shut the couatl task, I can delete the cache folder and after restarting the sim, GSX works.

For me the update also did not solve the issue.
It's still working directly after a LiveUpdate, but on the next sim start, GSX won't work again (and it won't rebuild the caches).

Deleting the cache folder manually as a workaround however does still make GSX work again.

I also noticed that after the LiveUpdate, couatl64_P3D.exe will properly shut down with P3D (checked task manager), at least for me.
But after the next sim start and sim shutdown it will keep running forever forcing me to terminating it manually in order to delete the Couatl. cache folder.
