  1. Hi ncngrr, I encountered the same problem and I modified my registry and went through the exact procedure you did. However when it came to installing FSUIPC4 (it was a licensed version), it could install but wouldn't activate it because it couldn't find the FSX_SE config file and couldnt edit my dll.xml (my log attached). Of course I no longer had the file because in order to install orbx I had to modify the registry and rename the file from FSX_SE to just FSX (I fontknow whe but they were the instructions provided in the orbx forum!). I found a workaround but Im not sure if it is a permanent fix. I went into my FSX folder and renamed it to FSX-SE and then renamed my fsx.cfg file to fsx_se.cfg. I was then able to active FSUIPC4. FSX-SE will try to write a new fsx.cfg file. I simply renamed the new fsx.cfg to fsxcopy.cfg (just in case I messed up and needed it again) and renamed the fsx_se.cfg file back to fsx.cfg. Works great now. Im sure Pete will have a more elegant solution but for now it has solved my problem... hope this helps. ============================================ Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.939 Looking in registry for FSX install path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 Parameter"SetupPath" ... >>> OK!
