That only confirm what I've said, that this problem is entirely unrelated to the activation process.
--- Quote ---Anyway, when I tried to call GSX menu first using MCE and then manually with CTRL+F12 and it didn't appear. So, I've checked the menu and it was not there.

What, exactly, wasn't there ? The Addon Manager menu, the Couatl menu, or the GSX entries under the Couatl menu ?

A picture is worth a thousand words - as you can see GSX is installed and there is nothing showing on the menu.

And I've found the following in the log file:
couatl v2.0 (build 2322)
log started on Fri Dec 28 10:50:16 2012
connecting to SimConnect...
connected to FSX
bglmanx non ready yet, waiting.

All the know solutions to both addons disappearing from the menu were already indicated in the above post:

If you *really* tried ALL of that, the only options left are reparing the FSX installation, and if that fails, reinstall Windows.

Ok, let's see:
- DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL with the antivirus entirely OFF - done (also turned off Win. defender and firewall)
- TURN OFF your antivirus. Don't just exit from its interface ... - done
- Reinstall GSX (using the full installer in this case) with the Antivirus TURNED OFF - done (at least 5 times)
- Configure the antivirus to exclude the following files from scanning: - yes in Defender, couldn't find it in avast.
- Now you can turn the antivirus back on, and launch FSX. - still turned off
- Check you are seeing BOTH the "Addon Manager" menu AND... not there
- Go in the Windows control panel, and Uninstall ALL the instances of the Visual Studio 2005 redistributable runtimes. You might have more than one version: remove them all. - all removed and reinstalled (x86 and x64)
- AFTER installing all the runtimes, it could be useful running Windows Update and update everything, including the optional downloads. - installed all current updates
So points 1 and 2 are done
Regarding Simconnect, I don't think that it is broken since other addons are working - such as FSUIPC, Accufeel and Active Sky 2012. And also Simconnect examples from VS 2012.
However, I did notice something in Simconnect logs:

As you can see only Couatl and bglmanx failed to load.
Also, during the first and last reinstallaion my fsx.cfg was rebuild due to unknown reason and this didn't help either.
There is one more thing, please check the error below during the installation.
