FSDT Installer fails to install
clivelcox:
As I said...I have uninstalled to start fresh to try and sort it out. I have deleted all relevant folders and cleared the registry.
The whole folder is excluded.
The installer always stops at same place as in the screenshot, that is far is it goes.

It doesn't seem you did a correct uninstall, because what it's doing (and of course it's not normal it would stop), is trying to fix up an existing installation where files have been missing, usually because they have been removed by hand or because of the antivirus removing them.
Do a proper uninstall this way:
- Go into the Windows Control Panel, select "Programs and Features" and uninstall the "Fsdreamteam Universal Installer" program
- After uninstalling it, remove the whole Addon Manager folder, which in your case seems to be C:\FSIM\MSFS\Addon Manager.
- Reinstall the FSDT Universal Installer again.

That is exactly what I have done and this where I ended up coming to the forum for insight.

I'm basing my replies on your screenshot. That screenshot clearly shows something else: it's trying to recover required files belonging to a GSX installation that has been removed.
It cannot possibly come out after a "clean" installation as the one I indicated in my last post because, after a clean installation (made following my steps to the letter) you won't have anything from GSX Pro yet, so the installer won't try to "restore" anything, which is what I can see it's doing in your screenshot.
So, either you haven't followed my instructions to make a new clean install to the letter, or your previous screenshot is no longer current with what is currently happening now.
