simconnect permission/ownership issue?

HI All

 

I am trying to overcome what I think is an access issue with Simconnect. I am on windows 10, updated from win7. FSX acceleration.

 

The trouble seems to have effected a couple of planes more complex systems, but I focus on captainsim 737. They pointed me towards a reinstaller for simconnect to get the vc working. I think they are correct it is simconnect issue and nothing to do with their model as such. Ran installer, no joy. I then changed ownership of FSX and the simconnect folders in winsxs and joy. It worked.

 

However after restarting fsx it stops working again. More basic functions found on default aircraft like the nav/gps switch work, but nothing fancy that requires  simconnect will function.

 

Tried to recreate my steps of taking control, but it makes no difference this time.

 

Any ideas about getting what I did once to work again and stick this time?

Ran simconnect.ini and got this at startup

 

0.00000 SimConnect version 10.0.61259.0

0.00493 Server: Scope=local, Protocol=Pipe, Name=\\.\pipe\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimConnect, MaxClients=64
0.00823 Server: Scope=local, Protocol=IPv6, Address=::1, Port=50900, MaxClients=64
0.01028 Server: Scope=local, Protocol=IPv4, Address=127.0.0.1, Port=50901, MaxClients=64

 

Does all look in order?
