"SIMCONNECT CONNECTION FAILED" error in FSXWX

[caleb1 27]

I'm not too sure if this is the right place to post this, but it didn't seem to show up in any other AVSIM forum.

 

I just got FSXWX for P3D and in the application when I click connect it gives me an error message.  See attached screenshot for details.

 

What do I need to do to fix this?

 

All help appreciated.

 

Thanks

I'm so sorry.  I forgot to attach the screenshot!  Here it is:

Hi caleb1,

I tried on Prepar3d v4 and v3.4 FSXWX v1.6.1 and it works fine.
Have you installed, just the free version, FSUIPC5 for v4 or 4 for v3.4? Check the installation path
of P3D has not changed on HDD.

Regards

Roberto

I am using P3D v3.4 and have the free version of FSUIPC 4 installed and it still does not work.

 

The path of P3D has not changed.

 

Do I need to run the simconnect installer or something like that?

 

Thanks

In the main P3D folder there is the redist \ Interface \ FSX-SP2-XPACK \ retail \ lib \ try to start
SimConnect.msi.

I will try that as soon as I get a chance.  I will let you know if it works.

 

Thanks

Ok, so when I run the SimConnect installer, I still have the same issue.  It says simconnect connection failed in FSXWX when I click connect.

 

Any other ideas?

 

Thank you very much for your time
