Hello, I'm looking to get some assistance with this error I receive regarding a corrupt EXE.XML in the MSFS2024 root folder. I have attached a screenshot of the error as well as the EXE file.

It says where the error is, Line 2.
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
Try this, in my EXE.XML its Type="SimConnect" and not Launch.
I also dont have this line in my exe.xml "<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>"
Thats the whole first part of my exe.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0">
<Descr>Auto launch external applications on MSFS start</Descr>
<Filename>exe.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>

Thanks for the reply. I edited the EXE to change those lines but i'm still getting the error. Hopefully someone from Virtuali can point me in the right direction.

You should ZIP the EXE.XML file and ATTACH it to a post, so I can check the actual file and tell you what's wrong with it.

You haven't posted the EXE.XML file I asked, which is the one read by the FSDT Installer, you posted a file named EXE.XML.ifbak, which is fine, but it's not read by either the FSDT installer or the simulator itself.
As I've said, post your actual EXE.XML file, which is the only one read by the FSDT Installer and used by the sim.

I believe I found the correct EXE attached

That is in fact corrupted, and it's caused by a duplicate tag in the Fenix line:
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>FenixA320</Name>
<Disabled>false</Disabled>
<Path>C:\Program Files\FenixSim A320\deps\FenixBootstrapper.exe</Path>
</Launch.Addon>
</Launch.Addon>
The 2nd one is a mistake, remove it, save the file and it will work.
