I am running both FSX and FSX Steam on the same PC. I may at some later date switch to Steam exclusively. I have FSUIPC installed for FSX. Are there any special installs or procedures I need to do to make it work for both versions of FSX? Regards, Russell Cox

Apparently I have installed it properly. I was following a document called FSUIPC - Quick Start Tutorial, which has some misleading instructions. There is no auto-installer.exe (any more?). And it definitely says to "Hit Alt+Enter", as opposed to just click ALT. And you need to have an aircraft selected and "Flying", hopefully standing on the runway. The first time I did it, the Beech King Air 350 was flying and descending, and I had no controls, nor did I recall the keyboard commands. So, I crashed along until I ended the flight and restarted it, somehow standing on the runway. I then clicked ALT and I got the menu bar. There is no Modules item to select, but Add Ons got me to the FSUIPC selection. So, the adventure continues... Regards, Russell Cox

Thank you for your reply... Apparently I only purchased the FSUIPC4 program. So, let's put WideFS aside for the moment. I don't see an auto-installer.exe file as indicated in the FSUIPC Quick Start Tutorial So I executed FSUIPC4.exe It seemed to install. When I started FSX, I selected the Beech King Air as suggested. When I click on "Alt" to get to Main FS Tool Bar Menu, I get no response. Any thoughts? Regards, Russell Cox

I purchased the following: 1 x PETE DOWSON - FSUIPC4 - Select Package: Single License - Sold by simFlight GmbH Did I get the Wide Client in this package? Here is the list of unzipped files I received: FSUIPC 4.939j Changes.pdf FSUIPC Registration Detail.txt FSUIPC4 Install Log FSUIPC4_Loader.dll Install FSUIPC4.exe Installing and Registering FSUIPC4.pdf Did I get the right files? I don't see an auto-installer.exe file as indicated in the FSUIPC Quick Start Tutorial So I executed FSUIPC4.exe It seemed to install. When I got to the registration screen, I was able to register FSUIPC, but not the Wide Client. When I started FSX, I selected the Beech King Air as suggested. When I click on Alt-Enter to get to Main FS Tool Bar Menu, I get no response. Any suggestions on what I may have done wrong?
