As I've said, when you *download* the installer doesn't matter, because the installer gets the files from the internet anyway so, the only thing that matters is when you ran it. There wasn't any need to download it again, I always said you only need to RUN it again, to get the current version!
In any case, as I've said in all the other messages, there was only one version which clearly had a problem (2135), which wasn't online for long, so I've put an older version which has been online since June and worked for everyone, just as a temporary fix while we fixed the latest version. This one HAS to run, if it doesn't, then clearly it's a problem in your system, because that version was fine and was up until the Hawaii 2 release date.
However, we ALSO fixed the latest version (2141) which is online now, and I can confirm it works and it's the correct one. Check what version you have by right-clicking on the Couatl.exe file, and verify it's the 2.0.0.2141
As an alternative, here's the version that came with the Hawaii2 installer:

Just to be clear: on my system (and I've been in touch with Amir from Flightbeam to test and confim this), ALL versions 2113, 2119 AND 2141 works without any issues. The only one that is confirmed had a problem was 2135, which is not available anywhere now, since it was never included with any installer.

Ok, this means your problem is *entirely* different, and doesn't have anything to do with anybody else's. The faulty version died as soon as it started, so it didn't appear in the Task manager, or it appeared only briefly.
If you see it in the Task manager, it means is working fine BUT, it has probably been running from a *previous* FSX run, and didn't close, probably because you ran the installer or re-ran FSX too quickly. If this happens, and Couatl.exe is still running from a previous FSX run, it won't start on the next FSX restart.
Try to kill the Couatl.exe process in Task Manager, and run FSX again.

It's nothing strange. That will appear only if you have installed the Stand-Alone version. If you uninstalled it, and then installed a scenery, the Addon Manager will not appear as a separate entry in the Uninstallable programs list.

Hello,
I found a solution for my problem. Its not satisfied, but the best I can do for now.
I deinstalled KSFO 2.0 and the Addon Manager also. I reinstalled the addonmanager Ver. 2.002077 from Nov. 2010. I reinstalled also KSFO 1.01. All my Adons working now fine. But if I trie to install KSFO 2.0 I have the same issue like before. That means, that something in the KSFO 2.0 is corrupt?
Regards

That's not really a solution, your issue is not the Addon Manager, but Couatl not running, and Couatl is now required by KSFO 2.0.
However, that Addon Manager installer, like all the Addon Manager installers, even if it's older, also downloaded ALL the Addon Manager AND the Couatl files from the server which means, it downloaded exactly the same files which are online now, and are download by the current installer, unless you ran it with no internet connection OR if a security program is blocking ANY download from our installer which means, if you run an older installer, you obtain an older version.
To be sure of this, what version is your Couatl.exe file now ?
Micha2405:
My Couatl.exe file has the Ver.nr. 2.00.2077
