- Start the FSDT Live Update again
- If that doesn't work, check Windows Update and be sure your Windows is fully updated
- Try again after a Windows restart.

Here's the problem:
The GSX version that download from FSDT webpage doesn't compatible with P3DV5.3 HF2. The GSX will disappear when enter the P3D.
And the Couatl.exe will crash, which means we need to run Live updater.
But if the user is operating windows 11, The Live updater will crash.
So, the new installed win11 and P3DV5.3HF2 user, will unable to use GSX for current time.

I tried to re-install again windows but I have the same problem.

I have been experiencing the same problem when trying to update, I get the initial splash screen and press next, 2 secondsd later it vanishes and I have the attached errors in Event Viewer.
Others also mentioned removing GSX and redownloading the latest installer. I have now done this THREE times and the "gsx_p3d4_setup2-6.bin" still has a hash mismatch when I check values given here. I get corrupted error messages when trying to install. User error cannot be blamed when the installer itself automatically downloads the required installation bin files. Antivirus is disabled. I will try the universal installer and perhaps try downloading on a laptop.
I have been using this to start the GSX downloader and installer.
