This is not the 1st time I got this problem (Quoted below), but years ago and forgot how to correct it. Could someone pls help me. And how do I prevent this happend again?

"There are duplicate copies of FSUIPC installed. Pls remove older copies!Never simply rename modules,move them OUT of the Modules folder!"

Thanks

Sorry for the delay in replying -- as mentioned in the Announcements above, my wife and I were off touring Argentina & Chile (by steam trains where possible) immediately after I returned to the UK from the AVSIM FanCon in Seattle.

The usual reason is that you have another copy of FS still running, but without any windows. That happens if you have some add-on (a gauge, aircraft, or DLL) which is not terminating all of its threads when FS is told to end.

To fix it, use the task Manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del) to find the FS EXE process (e.g. FS9.EXE) and forcibly kill it.

To stop it happening again you'd need to find the culprit, by a process of elimination.

Regards

Pete
