Old cycle showing even after several reboots...loading of flights in-progress and from C&D startups.

Best and easiest solution is to use their free FMS Data Manager.

 

FYI:  The navdata files except sidstars all go into \PMDG\NAVDATA and the sidstars go into \PMDG\SIDSTARS.  You can easily check the cycle by opening fmc_ident.txt to see which cycle is displayed by the FMS, which essentially just reads this file to get cycle date.

Hi,

 

Make sure it installed properly - check to see that it's in the right directories and remember FSX-SE has a somewhat different directory structure than FSX. Check the Navigraph forum where other users have experienced the same issue.

+1 for the FMS manager, takes the guess work out of it. I havent tried the 737 yet but the T7 updated to 1612 with no issues.
