Addon Manager
« on: May 25, 2019, 10:34:59 am »
Hi

Addon manager will not install, getting error 193 - Couatl.exe which means %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

This is a new system - P3D running perfectly, all of the C++ have been removed and reinstalled.

Clearly an antivirus problem, that has corrupted the file trying to "heal" it by a non-existent threat. Configure the antivirus to exclude the whole Addon Manager folder from scanning, and reinstall.

Hi

I disabled every Windows 10 security feature (everything) and also excluded the folder even though everything is disabled.

Downloaded and run addon manager again and error message persists.

If it's not the antivirus, the thread named "Addon Manager not showing up in P3Dv4 **SOLVED**" thread lists all the known solutions for any missing system libraries, which might be another, less common, cause of the problem:
