June 9, 20169 yr Trying to install the MD-11 for FSX off my disk, but Windows 10 which seems to think it knows better, blocks the Setup.exe with a flag that 'the administrator(me)has blocked access to the Setup.exe', which is a bit odd as well as maddening. How can a setup on a disk be suspicious in comparison to a downloaded file? Any clues anyone, or is this a case of Microsoft Windows 10 gone mad? Rick Almeida
June 9, 20169 yr Commercial Member Any clues anyone, or is this a case of Microsoft Windows 10 gone mad? Click "More Info" and "install anyway." Be careful, though. Hardware and OSs are quickly getting well beyond the code of the MD-11, which can cause issues with the sim. Kyle Rodgers
June 9, 20169 yr Yeah, time for an update... *hint* *hint* CASE: Fractal Terra Silver CPU: AMD R5 7800X3D 5.0Ghz RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 GPU: nVidia RTX 4070 Ti SUPER · SSDs: Samsung 990 PRO 2TB M.2 PCIe · PNY XLR8 CS3040 2TB M.2 PCIe · VIDEO: LG-32GK650F QHD 32" 144Hz FREE/G-SYNC · MISC: Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Joystick + Throttle Quadrant · MSFS2024 · Windows 11
June 9, 20169 yr Author Thanks, Kyle, for that. Sadly, it'd not install in FSX-SE. Pity. Ah, well......................back to the drawing board. Maybe one day a developer will take this lovely aircraft on. :sad: Rick Almeida
June 9, 20169 yr Rick, You need to run the command prompt as an administrator. From the search menu type 'cmd' then right click the Command Prompt and run it as administrator. cd to the appropriate directory and run the setup program. I hope it works, the MD-11 is a great airliner. Jonathan Bee

Jonathan Bee Jonathan Thanks for that piece of advice, but that is precisely what I did do, right-click 'Run as an administrator', and that is precise Windows 10 block I got. Rick Almeida
June 12, 20169 yr I'm seeing this as well. Looks like a certificate expiring thing (Thawte). I can fly it, but the load manager is coming up blocked. For the load manager specifically you have to get your DOS brain cells working and run it from CMD (Admin) "I am the Master of the Fist!" -Akuma
June 12, 20169 yr Author Managed to get it installed, but after loading the default Trike in FSX-SE, clicking on any House Colors MD-11 variant, promptly crashed the sim. Something to do with a gauges\PMDG_ MD11_ ACS.DLL faulting module. At that stage, I quit. Rick Almeida
