[FSUIPC Crashing FSX:SE]

And that fixed it!  Not sure how it happened in the first place; must be my special genius for that sort of thing.  Anyway, thanks very much for your assistance, Pete!

[FSUIPC Crashing FSX:SE]

Hi all,

I have much the same problem.  This appeared after I hadn't used FSX/FSUIPC for about a month or so, and hadn't added any new add-ons in the meantime.  I get the following message:

Flight Simulator has detected a problem with a third party software (add-on):

Name:  FSUIPC4 DLL: FS new universal IPC interface

Version 4.974

Company: Peter L. Dowson

File: Modules\FSUIPC4.dll

If I try to run FSX with FSUIPC, the program immediately crashes.  The FSUIPC4.log reads:

I'm a registered FSUIPC user and have run it for years without a problem.  I've tried the solutions posted above without any luck (and I do not have a SimConnect.dll in my Modules folder. Any ideas? (please be patient with me, I'm a bit of a computer idiot).
