December 23, 20214 yr I've downloaded the new AS version for the 5.3 HF 5.1 with the lights fix. When trying to run ActiveSky I get the following message: We were unable to located requried folders/files. Please browse to your Prepar3D Application Data Location in the next screen. If you are running in a networked configuration, select the proper share. Can someone tell me where this folder is / what I should do next? It was fine on the hotfix, but with the hotfix update and the new version of ActiveSky I get this.

December 23, 20214 yr Are you sure you are trying open Active Sky for P3D v5. It also seems to install a version for P3D v4, and I got that message when I clicked on the wrong version. Calum Watt

Uninstall the AS Connector package, then reinstall it by attempting to run ASP3D again after the uninstall is finished.

December 23, 20214 yr Commercial Member If you haven't run P3D yet, only installed it from a fresh install, some certain files/indexes won't be there and it may not properly validate the installation. In this case just running P3D once will resolve that. Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation Technologies

As you can see, for many of us having a working version of ActiveSky is a necessary condition to even install the latest sim.

It was fine on the hotfix, but with the hotfix update and the new version of ActiveSky I get this. One reason for this message is a missing p3d.config. I have had this myself once i´ve installed P3D, deleted my config to let it rebuild new, but before i start P3D i usually start AS usually an got this message. After the config was rebuild by a first start of the sim AS started without any problems.
