You've got a corrupted registry by the look of it. See:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0

Parameter"SetupPath"

That's the parameter which tells everything (not just FSUIPC) where FSX is, but it contains this path:

"C:\Users\tony\Documents\VRS_FA18EX\VRS_FA18EX_1.0.5.1\"

Seems like some other installer you've used has messed the registry entries up.

FSUIPC4's installer can fix it for you. Didn't you follow the instructions to locate FSX.EXE as it would surely have told you?

Another way is to check the Announcements in this Forum. In particular see the one entitled "Fix for FS installation registry problems" right at the top.
