Trouble installing addon in Community Folder

Featured Replies

I have downloaded the Flightsim.to freeware EGSU Duxford Aerodrome. Unzipped folder into the Community folder. Launched the sim and started a flight at EGSU - it was the default MSFS airport, not the Flightsim.to freeware addon. Looked in my Community folder, and the Flightsim.to version was in fact there. Any suggestions as to what could be the problem? Thanks

If you look in the folder that is in your community folder, do you see "layout.json" and "manifest.json" files plus some other stuff? If you only see another folder, move that folder to your community folder (and then delete the original folder).

I took a quick peek at the package (this one: https://flightsim.to/file/21755/duxford-airfield-egsu) and it has an extra folder in the zip (actually, rar) file that is downloaded. The folder that should be added to your community folder is "EGSU Duxford Airfield".

The download is a 7zip file, did you extract the files before putting it in the community folder?

I agree with JimBrown ... probably a "nested" subfolder.

Yup!  Had the same issue until I spotted the second folder
