June 9, 2025Jun 9 Everytime I run the X-Plane 12 shortcut the main installation folder opens. That just started happening. Is there a trick to stopping that from happening? Thanks.

Found this I had the same issue and resolved it by deleting Navigraph Simlink from both Xplane/resources/plugins and my PC, including from C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming. I have since reinstalled the latest version of Navigraph and XP opens with out opening File explorer. Its only my experience but may be worth a try. Edited June 10, 2025Jun 10 by mjrhealth

It happened to me too a couple times but it's been months since I last had experienced it. Maybe this fix you mention is really the solution because I do remember uninstalling and clean installing Navigraph from time to time, and while I can't relate that strange phenomenon not happening with that because I can't really recall if it stopped happening after a SimLink reinstall, it might well have been the fix, and I wasn't even aware of it and thought it had been solved by an Xp12 update.

That is exactly what was causing it. I deleted the NavigraphSimlink_64.xpl from the plugins folder and that took care of it. I find myself having issues with the way Navigraph installs and uninstalls their programs on win pc. Why would the uninstall program delete that file from the resource plugins folder?!?!?! 😏
