Hello Pete, Incredible, but true!!! After the "Registry repair" - although it seemed without new results - FSUIPC 3.999z got installed !!!!! Probably fixed some little tweak on the path...... Thank you for all your help, appreciated very much your professional assistance. Kind regards arrow12

Hello Pete, I tried the "FS9 Registry Utility" you recommended and here are the results: STEP 1) GET PATH: " Get the fs9.exe file path as recorded in the Registry GET FS9 PATH Register key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\9.0\ FS9 Folder path in Registry: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9 _____________ Launch RegEdit and search for the FS9 registry SearchReg STEP 2) SET PATH: Step1: Select the FS9 Root Folder Path: " C:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9" Step2: Select the CD-ROM path (OPTIONAL) Step3: Write the Data to the Registry: SET FS9 Path "The selected path is already recorded in the Registry!" And that was it. Any new clues? The path you requested is probably included up here. Regards arrow12

Hello Pete, Tried again: unfortunately same result e.g. installer log as before.... Any other chance? Appreciate all your help. Best regards arrow12

Hello Pete, Thank you. sorry to bother you again, but before proceeding any further I want to be sure not to make any fatal error. 1) The installation log 3.999z has been totally created by the installer: I have NOT given any direction or path whatsoever. In other words: The installer did not ask me to give any inputs, except the "YES" on the pop-up window, before the second attempt. 2) Therefore: ... NOT found! Asking user to find the .EXE instead ... User identified path: "C:\Users\A.......\Documents\FSUIPC" is the Installers work, he did not ask to find any path or file. I repeat no input from my side, except the YES confirmation. By the way, when I purchased 3.999z I found out that my installed 3.70 was not registered. So I registered (Key was accepted) before running the 3.999 install. Certain FS9 planes (e.g. TinMouse 737-200) did not work properly anymore (ASI & flaps not operating).. I did a reset backwards of the PC - now the 3.70 is again not registered - and everything works fine!! Any clue? Best regards arrow12

Hello Sir Peter, I have Win7 with FS9 (FSUIPC v.3.70) and FSX (FSUIPC4 v.4.86) installed. Lately I have purchased v.3.999z but the Installer failed: in the first attempt he looks for "H_KEY LOCAL MACHINE (or CURRENT USER)\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\ Flight Simulator\9.0 (or 9.1); --- Parameter "EXE Path" : NOT FOUND --- Asking user to find the EXE. instead. A pop-up window comes: "Although FSUIPC is installed, your registry is pointing in the wrong place for this Unknown installation. Now we know where it shoud point. Do you want to fix it?" ---- push YES --- In the second attempt the Installer is not successful either and reports following: "INSTALLATION FOR Unknown; Checking if there's already a version of FSUIPC installed in: C\users\........\Documents\FSUIPC\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL ..... no previous valid version found. Failed to place FSUIPC.DLL into folder as C\users\......\Documents\FSUIPC\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL Error 3 reported (Impossible to find specified path)" This is the end of the Installation process. What next? Can you please help? Many thanks in advance arrow12
