Your error looks similar to the one discussed here:
https://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,33282.msg209440.html#msg209440
So, check your livery file, maybe it has the same problem.

I opened the aircraft.cfg file with a 16-bit editor. Everything is displayed correctly there. But I still changed it to "" but the problem remains. It gives an error. And this problem is on all planes. Today I did an update and nothing helps.

I'm sorry, but you log doesn't show anything other then a generic inability to connect to the sim, suggesting a sim installation issue. A tested FSX with the version you have (5770), which is the latest one, so it seem you are fully updated, and it works normally.
