I have recently purchased ActiveSky2004.5I have browsed the forum and could not find the answer to my problem.When I download weather I have no problem downloading the current weather, but as soon as I go into the archives I end up with the error message "Invalide waether file folder. Please set a valid folder before continiuing"Please some one help, I am sure the problem is simple, since I have downloaded 1 archived file last week.

Hi,Thanks for your purchase and Welcome! On the Options screen do you have a line entered for the default weather file folder?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Yes, because it does download the current.This is what is on the lineC:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesFlight Simulator 9ModulesActiveSky2004

I was getting this message the other day, too. I tried a different date/time and it downloaded just fine. I think it wasn't finding the particular archive I was requesting.Mark Kuebeler

Hi jab.Did it clear up or are you still getting the meaasge?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi MarkI will try different dates to see if that is the case I think you might be right since I have manage to download 4 archives previously.What I will do this weekend is try and download one or two of those again and if that works then we know that what I am looking for is obviously not in the Archive Files.Hans Brokke (Jabjoker)

Still have the problemOnly downloads current weather no archive files.Should I re-install ActiveSky?RegardsHans Brokke (jabjoker)

Hi,Sorry you are still having trouble. Yes, go and do a uninstall/reinstall cycle. I have not had any other reports of this. Please let us know how things are going!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi Jim,I did not do a re-install but managed to download quiet a few archived files last night.Obviously the gremlin has gone!I initailly thought it was my Norton Anti-virus as I disabled it, but when enabled I still managed to download files.Maybe it has soemthing to do with the poor quality of my internet provider connection.Anyway thanks for tha assisatnceHans Brokke (jabjoker)JohannesburgSouth Africa
