September 10, 201114 yr Hi all I have a problem adding scenery to FSXI downloaded the free versions (for trial) from UK2000. They say to start FSX and go to add sceneryI have done that. Once I click on add sceenerya new window opens and asks me for the path. I browse to the folder and click on the directory i say ok and then it drills down and shows me the scenery and texture folder. I pick one of them and it says no matching files foundWhat on earth am i doing wrong. This happens for all the ones I want to add on. I also got the free Prestwick one from Scotflight.Just wont work Thx in advance for answers. Ian Ian C. McCulloch 'What would one do without Malt Whisky? Slainte Mhath' It only can get better

September 10, 201114 yr Yup. It's a bug in W7. FSX was never designed for W7, so i guess that's not surprising. IAN Ryzen 5800X3D, Nvidia RTX5080 - 32 Gig DDR4 RAM, 1TB & 2 TB NVME drives - Windows 11 64 bit MSFS 2024 Premium Deluxe Edition Resolution 2560 x 1440 (32 inch curved monitor)
