Unable to register LFNC on my second machine **SOLVED**
« on: March 17, 2022, 12:42:35 am »
Hi:
I have two MSFS setups, one in a desktop PC, the other one in my gaming laptop that I mostly use when I'm traveling, testing or developing simple airports and city landmarks. I purchased LFNC today via SimMarket, activated the product using the FSDT Universal Installer on my laptop successfully, but when I try to activate and install the product on my desktop computer I get the enclosed message and I'm stuck at this point.
I can use Contrail and ORBX Central without any issues on my two computers. What could be wrong with this App?.
Regards, Ed

On your desktop, the problem is likely your firewall/antivirus blocking the download of the support files for LFNC, which are not included in version you had, but they are supposed to be *downloaded* automatically as soon the app starts. That if the firewall/antivirus are not blocking it.

So, as usual:

- be sure your firewall is not blocking the download

- configure the antivirus to add the whole Addon Manager folder to the antivirus Exclusions

- Alternatively, if you redownload the Universal installer again, the updated installer contains the new files required by LFNC so, it should work even if your firewall/antivirus is preventing the old version from downloading the updated files.

All is Ok now, but had to re-download and re-install the Universal Installer.
During the first installation my A/V (which is Windows Defender) was set to OFF together with the Firewall. The Addon Manager folder is excluded from virus scanning (always).
Thanks so much
