Switch to FSX:SE, cant find FSX.exe when installing -600/-700

Featured Replies

I'm switching to FSX:SE and when I try to install the -600/-700 expansion I am told that the installer can't find FSX.exe and to contact support. So that is what I'm doing right now. What's the solution?

You might try running the FSX/FS9 Registry Repair Tool from Flight 1.  Hopefully that will help the installer to find the program file once you re-run the installer.  If not, you can open a Support TIcket via the main PMDG website.

 

By the default location for the FSX.EXE file you're looking for is located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX

 

Best wishes.

Thanks for the tip Dave but it didn't help.

 

The message says it needs the FSX.exe - retail version. If that means boxed version - I just uninstalled it! Why would the NGX want that? I want it to work with FSX:SE!
