You may have a corrupt DLL.xml.

There's a test DLL.xml you can use in that thread.

Cheers,

i really dont know anything about DLL.xml and where to find it or what is it in first place, can you jus like help me in details of what to do exactly please? asap @byork

Problem: I activated UGCX via the UGCX Config Manager, but UGCX still does not appear in the ADDONS MENU.

Solution: Your DLL.XML is likely corrupt.  The DLL.xml is a very sensitive document and if there's anything wrong with it, addons like UGCX will not load.

Side note: If using FSX, also ensure you have the latest version of FSX installed (FSX + Acceleration /SP2)

What to do:

1. Backup your pre-existing DLL.xml (located described below).

2. Download our DLL.xml to test.

3. Overwrite your current DLL.xml with our test dll.xml.

DLL.xml locations:

FSX: 
C:\Users\***your user name***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\dll.xml

P3D V4 and v5
C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\dll.xml

C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\dll.xml

You can open the DLL.xml with Notepad.

--->ENSURE YOU GO TO THE "PROGRAMDATA" FOLDER!

If interested, PMDG has written a great article on the DLL.xml and how to fix them!

how to overwrite thats what i dont understand

 

Make a backup of the original DLL.xml.

Delete the pre-existing DLL.xml.

Put our test DLL.xml in its place.

That's it!

99 percent of the time if UGCX doesn't show up in the ADDONS menu, it's because your DLL.xml is corrupt, causing UGCX not to load.
