Hi, the folder you have to select is the one where "X-Plane.exe" is located. Please make sure to select the main X-Plane folder, not any other subfolder (like the plugins subfolder).

If this fails, it could mean:

1) There is no X-Plane.exe in the folder you've selected.

2) The folder access rights prevent the installer to access X-Plane.exe file to check it exists.

3) The X-Plane.exe file version is not correct (9.xxx. 10.xxx or 11.xxx)

Hope this helps!

I'm not sure to really understanding it all, but aren't you asking a question alright? If so, I'd guess the place you are asking the question is the place to ask questions isn't it? If not, can you please try explaining what you'd expect?

Considering you are trying to install the Reality XP GNS V2 for X-Plane, we'd assume you do have X-Plane (9, 10 or 11) installed isn't it? If so, it is installed in its own folder on one of your hard-drive. The X-Plane program is at least named "X-Plane.exe" in the aforementioned folder. This folder is therefore the one to select with the installer.

Well, if the installer tells you it is an invalid X-Plane 9 folder, when pointing to the X-Plane 10 folder, it is because you've instructed the installer to install for X-Plane 9 instead of X-Plane 10!

Just make sure to select "X-Plane 10" in the installer, so as to instruct it you want to install for "X-Plane 10".
