Content manager problems, please help.

Hello, during troubleshooting I did something I didn’t know would happen.  In Steam I right clicked MSFS, clicked on Properties, clicked on Local Flies and then on Verify integrity...  When I ran the sim it had to reinstall all the files, it was as if it was a new install.  That took hours and hours.

Now when I go to Content Manager I see a list of 596 Installed Files but I can’t delete any like I was able to previously, and to make matters worse two of my airports aren’t installed.

I have a lot of third party airports installed and when I search for them in Content Manager they’re there except for YSSY and KBOS, both from FlyTampa.  I used Orbx Direct to uninstall them and reinstall them in my Library folder and as a test install directly into the sim.  They simply won’t show up in the Content Manager or the sim itself.  They’re shown in the Community Folder though.

So two missing airports and Content Manager not working properly.  I signed out and then into my MS account, Verified Files in Direct, rebooted the PC and sim and don’t understand why this is happening.

Any ideas would be very helpful and appreciated.

You sure your new install uses the same path as your old, deleted, install? That would mess up Orbx installer and others looking at your old Community folder.

Yes, thanks.  I discovered I was not online in the general settings so now it’s working on installing over a hundred files and the airports are there too.  My mistake I guess.

Glad you got it solved!
