Hi,

I downloaded the new installer.
I never asked anything about MSFS, so can you explain to me why I found an MSFS directory with files in my P3D addon manager directoty?

Thank's
Yves

The one product supports three platforms so contains all data.

For MSFS you require an additional license.

With "the new installer" you mean the Offline Installer ?

the MSFS folder contains just a couple of html files, which won't be used by P3D, totaling less than 300k, and the only other MSFS-specific file which is installed in any case, if the Couatl64_MSFS executable, which of course won't be called unless you install GSX in MSFS, so it will only take about 4MB of disk space.

The Addon Manager is not a "P3D directory", it's the place where all FSDT products for every simulator are installed. You have been getting FSX-specific files there not used by P3D for years (like the 32 bit version of Couatl), nothing changed.

Perhaps, but why did it download a lot of files in an MSFS directory.
I have a 1Gb fiber, and after 20 minutes had only 3% of download....
Neairly all the files in a MSFS directory.
I stopped that mess!

You don't say which files were but, if you installed the GSX Pro for MSFS, if will try to update it, maybe because you removed some folders folders but no others, so it has detected a failed MSFS installation that needs repair.
