FSUIPC does not delete them. In fact if P3D crashes, it cannot delete them. It does not actually write them in the first place -- P3D does. FSUIPC merely asks it to save the flight, just a couple of lines of code effectively. It is the same as yousaving flights -- do those all disappear too?
Of course, P3D cannot delete them eith if it crashed. Nothing part of P3D can. If they are really being deleted you have some other third party program on your system being malicious.
I don't know what to tell you -- they're there, and I can open and view them. I'm highly doubtful that anything malicious is on my computer, much less deleting autosaves.

You are getting serious pauses on every autosave, caused by PMDG saves. With PMSG aircraft it is recommended NOT to use any type of Autosave because of these pauses. However, if you insist then you should at least use the current latest interim FSUIPC release -- 5.103g -- available in the Download Links subforum. That allows a much longer Simconnect timeout when it sees a flight being saved. This should stop spme pf the symptoms shown in your log, especially the looping at the end of the log showing repeated failed attempts to reconnect to SimConnect. (It isn't a crash, by the way).
5.104 should have been released today, but family matters came up and delayed this. Look out for that next Tuesday (I am away for the weekend, Fri to Mon inclusive).

Yep, the pauses are pretty painful. The crashes usually happen towards the end of the flight, and often occur when I try to use manipulators, but the cause remains unknown to me; it's just reported as ntdll.dll. As much as I don't want to, I may end up reinstalling P3D, despite the serious cost of time. I do need to solve this issue of the crashing in the first place, but I thought it would be helpful to bring my experience with the issue to light. Unfortunately, I can't really test to see if it's limited to PMDG aircraft, as I don't really have anything else that's long haul.
Anyway, I will reinstall P3D and install the update as well. Thanks for your help!

I also have this issue. The saves go in my documents folder correctly, but if P3D crashes, all the saves disappear. This is quite frustrating as a long haul enthusiast who bought FSUIPC for FSX exclusively for the autosave feature, which is the same reason I bought it again for P3Dv4. I've attached my log file.

I just bought FSUIPC to autosave my flights since the other autosave applications don't work with FSX-SE. I primarily fly the PMDG T7, but given the way panel states are loaded and all that, I was wondering if I need to configure anything to save the panel states. Sorry if this has been asked before, but help would be much appreciated!

Not sure what I did, but somehow they've both started to work.

There is no difference to the interface FSUIPC presents to applications whether it is running in FSX, FSX-SE or P3D (or even FS98, FS2000, FS20002, CFS1 or CFS2)! Maybe those programs check whethe rit is FSX or P3D and make their own decision, but this is unusual, and all the programs I know which use FSUIPC run fine independently on whether it is with FSX or P3D.
There are NOT two versions, "free" and otherwise. It is identical. The only things purchasing it gives you are the User Facilities. Registration enables those which are otherwise locked.
I think you need to contact Support for those two programs. Oh, and make sure you are not running P3D "as administrator" and those programs not, or vice versa, because programs of different privilege levels can't talk to each other.
If you want me to check FSUIPC is running okay you need to find the FSUIPC4.log file in the P3D Modules folder, and paste its contents here. Please close P3D first.

I've tried running both P3D and the other applications as an admin, no profit. I've also installed it into FSX-SE and it no longer works. I know that both applications work because they work with XPUIPC, which is the FSUIPC equivalent of X-Plane (it spoofs FSUIPC).

I've had FSUIPC installed in FSX-SE before, and it's worked. I've had P3D v2 for a while but just got around to installing FSUIPC. While it loads and shows up in the menu in P3D, applications like vUACARS and FSXWX don't interface with it. It seems to work in the sim but not outside of the sim. This is really frustrating since I've had it working before. It's just the free version. I've tried 4.955c and 4.494p and neither works. The latter I've used before and it works and I found an installer for it laying around. Some help with this would be greatly appreciated.
FSUIPC Auto Save Not Saving P3D V4

At the time, the only other way was an addon called autosave (I know, original), but it didn't install into FSX:SE. I decided to just bite the bullet and buy FSUIPC. I then started using FSXWX for free weather, and I started utilizing some of the FSUIPC features for that, but now I use AS16 (or... ASP4 now). Now I use it to assign the rudder and tiller to the same axis. Either way, I find the purchase personally justifiable since it goes to a flight sim veteran such as yourself. You're always working on it, and your support leaves most other guys in the dust. I have no trouble supporting you by buying your addon, even if I don't fully utilize it.
