May 21, 20197 yr Cannot install the thing. Looks like it wants to put it in p3d on my C drive. That is a problem because p3d is on my D drive and the setup does not allow me to choose the install path. That is a bad start! Very disappointing. Eric
May 22, 20197 yr Hi Eric, The Vertx DA62 installer is using the new system whereby LM recommend Addons are installed outside the P3D root folder. This has many benefits not least being ease of upgrading the P3D core software. During the installation take a moment to check the default path chosen by the DA62 installer and you will see that it is directing the installer to your Documents folder on the C drive. This may seem odd but is in fact correct. I suggest you let the installer proceed to completion without attempting to make any changes. Regards, Mike

May 22, 20197 yr Author I wish that I could post an image on this (no)Startup issue but I do not know how to do that either. I get to the screen where the opportunity to enter the Install path should be but as I said the picture of the aircraft is there but the rest of the screen is just white. Somebody suggested that I should just wait for it "to do its thing" . An hour should be enough but nothing changed. Sean or somebody at Vertx should have a clue so I'm waiting....... Eric
