Dear Peter,

Fist my specs.

I run 4 pc's with the PM software.

PC1 runs FS

PC2 runs PFD Captain by Magenta

PC3 runs Eicas/CDU by Magenta

PC4 runs PFD First Officerby Magenta

I've installed the latest registrated FSUIPC and WideServer/Client software.

But now the problem:

Starting up FS works well and it starts all the Magenta software on the other pc's.

But when i close FS via the menu witrh F X Yes, FS closes but all the Magenta software keeps on running.

I've read the manual many times and tried several options.

No succes.

Here are my ini files

Do you have any idea what's wrong?

I hope to hear from you soon.

I assume you are using WideFS 6.47?

Does the WideClient Log file record the shutdown notification being received?

The only incidence I've seen which is a little like this actually results from timing problems, and in fact the applications often close but start again directly, so look like they never closed.

If this is what is happening then it should be okay using the interim version I released here to fix that. Please check the thread "Problem with shutting down apps on the clients" from a couple of weeks ago -- just scroll down a bit.

Let me know.

Regards,

Pete

Hi Pete,

Many thanks for your fast reaction.

I checked the thread "Problem with shutting down apps on the clients" and it seemed to me it was the same problem.

I downloaded and installed the interim wideclient.exe on my client pc's

and you guess what......it all worked perfect. Great. :D :D :D

I was busy with this all for two days and i had to write you sooner.

But first i'll always try the options and read the manuals before i contact an author.

I searched the forum but not with one of the words that was in the thread.

But i'm happy with the solution and can sleep well tonight.

Regards and many thanks again.
