December 26, 20205 yr I used to use SimStarter for P3D to run all my external apps. Any recommendations on something similar with MSFS? Wanting to automatically fire off MSFS and many external applications with a single click. Really dont want to do batch files.
December 26, 20205 yr how many external programs are you running that you would need an app to start them all? Only external program I run is little nav map and thats on a remote pc
December 26, 20205 yr Author A few and it depends on a few things so profiles would be nice. Pilot2ATC, FSEconomy, Rex Weather to name a few.

April 1, 20215 yr Is Simstarter coming to MSFS is a more relevant question ? Probably THE best utility ever for P3D. It can change so many things and when you have a lot of stuff in the community folder, AND harder core aircraft come out, being able to change settings such as graphics, Traffic, weather etc would be invaluable. Can't believe this hasn't been asked before.
April 1, 20215 yr I, for one, use SPLAT for years and really love this simple freeware tool. With a simple shortcut on my desktop I run all the programs I want at the same time as MSFS. You can add as many as you want, organize the launch order, and decide the launch timing for each program. With P3D I had about ten programs that started with a single click. Here is the MSFS configuration. Here is the Edit window, for each new entry. - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.

I dont think you can point to and run an external .exe file.

Just an FYI, newer versions of FSUIPC write an EXE.XML and FSUIPC loads that way. Noticed you're also loading it thru Splat. -J 13700KF | RTX 4090 @ 1440 | 64GB DDR5 | 2 x 1TB SSDs | 1TB M.2 NVMe

Wanting to automatically fire off MSFS and many external applications with a single click. Really dont want to do batch files. I use FSUIPC7. I start MSFS and when FSUIPC initializes, it starts all the apps I want running with the sim. Eg. SPAD Next, MultiCrew experience and trackIr are apps I never have to start or shutdown manually, FSUIPC does it all for me. Not looking at the manual right now, but if I am not mistaken it allows as much as 23apps to start and shut down or close with MSFS. Robin
