To finish your error message after the ... it says "or doesn't check correctly". Unless you cancelled the registration at the dialogue, this latter does actually mean you made an error. Please make sure all three parts are EXACTLY correct.

 

If you aren't sure and you are already registered for FSX and P3D, then refer to the FSUIPC4.KEY file in eitther your FSX or P3Dv1 Modules folders -- it is a text file, so open it in Notepad. Then cut and paste. Alternatively just copy the FSUIPC4.KEY file to the FSX-SE Modules folder, which is all the Installer would do in any case had you simply responded "Not now" to the registration option.

 

If you do have any further questions about Installation, please do find the FSUIPC4 Install log and paste its contents into a message here. The reason the log is produced is to make it easy to diagnose these things.

Dear Pete,

 

As you requested I put here the FSUIPC4 Installation log so you can check it. I did the installation procedure again and I checked the "check existing installation" and I press the go but the same message appears again.

 

Here is the log file:

Many thanks in advance.

As you requested I put here the FSUIPC4 Installation log so you can check it. I did the installation procedure again and I checked the "check existing installation" and I press the go but the same message appears again.

 

What actually happens when you enter you registration details? Is there no response to this on screen, rather than the log message?

 

Didn't you find the FSUIPC4.KEY file as I suggested? Or have you never registered before? If you did register before, why are you re-registering?
