Hey, I just got GSX purchased and everything and when i go to activate it the only thing i get after clicking "enter serial key" is the windowed mode reccomendation, then nothing once i click ok
FSX is already running in non maximized windowed mode so not sure whats going on here.

This has been discussed many times on the forum, it's a problem caused by another program.
Check you are not running another add-on that is launching FSX itself. Launch FSX from its icon
Be sure you don't have another add-on that is "stealing" the focus, so it forces the registration dialog behind the FSX one (the dialog is likely there, you just don't see it because of this other program). Programs that are known to cause this problem are online flying clients with chat windows and similar, or programs that launch FSX themselves.
Turn them off during the registration, you can turn them back on after the registration, and launch FSX from its own icon.

Double checked running only FSX and Activesky next, it looks like FSX ITSELF will try an force top over the serial activation window. May wanna look into that.
Either way, its activated now, while the serial window didnt show up in alt tap, clicking the FSX icon in the taskbar allowed me to get the proper window, for anyone who stumbles on this thread try that if you're having problems

No, it wasn't FSX, it was probably Activesky. If it wasn't that, it was another program you had in your taskbar, but I assure you that with FSX itself, the problem never happens.

As indicated in the GSX manual ( Page 3 ) and in your purchase receipt too, you use the "Register Serial" button from the Addon Manager menu, which is located under the FSX "Addons" menu.
