August 10, 20223 yr I bought the product just recently from simmarket, whats the proper procedure for running the update ? Do you first uninstall it, I have windows 10 and go to programs to uninstall, and then from simmarket I download the new version ?

Mark (the dev) has always recommended you first uninstall it via Windows Add/Remove... then install the new exe. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

The new installer will remove the old version before it installs the new, it doesn't install over the top. Sure FSW's stuff has done that for ages. Never had a problem!

Depends on where you purchased. I purchased it though Simmarket. I have it installed via the now-required Simmarket desktop app. An app akin to Orbx Central. My Flysimware 414 does not appear in Windows Programs and Features so that method is not available. The Simmarket app is the available method. It has an uninstall feature. I do uninstall before installing a new update. Caveat: if you have made changes to config files then make sure to offload copies. I routinely modify the default passenger and cargo loading (stationloads) in respective aircraft's flight_model.cfg files. I also edit aircraft.cfg to rem out unwanted default liveries.

August 11, 20223 yr I'm downloading the latest again tonight and once again it will take 3 hours unlike the past updates which took 3 minutes. Also the HJET MP download which is the same size takes about 4 minutes. Something must have changed on the FSW web site. sp

August 11, 20223 yr How do I get he tablet to appear again? As to the change log to 2.9.0, it sits in the side pocket and I hear a click sound when clicking on it but that's it, it does not come up anymore. Regards Gunter Schneider

If that doesn't work, something is wrong with the install or you have some type of conflict. If you are using a third party livery, try a default livery. Al Edited August 11, 20223 yr by ark
