I have prepar3d V5. I downloaded the DEMO for MCE and then purchased it. I got my serial number and license key.

When I launch MCE I go through the MCE wizard with no issues.

However, when I try launching MCE it says trying to connect to flight simulator than after a while it gives me a message saying that it can't retrieve FS data. I have checked that fsinsider64.dll is in prepar3d folder and it is.

Thanks

Welcome aboard.

For P3D to load fsInsider64.dll the "dll.xml" file needs to have a reference to the file.

Go to C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D V5\

Open "dll.xml" using Notepad only.

Check that you have these lines (they're expected to be added by the app wizard (setup program) automatically. Sometimes may not happen.

<Launch.Addon>
    <Name>Multi Crew Experience</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
    <Path>fsInsider64.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>

If you installed P3D V5 AFTER installing MCE, just re-run the wizard, without going through speech training. Otherwise, manually add those lines right before the last line showing "</SimBase.Document>"

Once the dll gets loaded, MCE will be able to communicate with the sim.

Also ensure you have a <MCE dlls> folder in \Prepar3D v5\ installation folder, with about 40+ dlls, one for each supported complex plane.
