FSUIPC (Flight Simulator has detected a problem)

Hello, 

 

Recently, 2 hours ago roughly, I received this error when I launched FSX.

 

 

This is packaged with my Virtual Airlines ACARS system and now it doesn't work. 

 

Install Log:

INSTALLATION FOR FSX:

SetupPath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\"

Checking version of FSX.EXE:

Checking compatibility with installed SimConnect:

    Found SimConnect build 60905 (Original)

    Found SimConnect build 61242 (SP1 May07)

    Found SimConnect build 61259 (Acc/SP2 Oct07)

Checking if there's already a version of FSUIPC4 installed in:

       C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL

... No previous valid version found.

FSX Modules folder already exists.

Okay -- installed FSUIPC4 into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL"

Looking for the current user's Application Data path: 

... found as "C:\Users\Mav\AppData\Roaming"

Looking in "C:\Users\All Users\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No FSX.CFG there

Looking in "C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No FSX.CFG there

Looking in "C:\Users\Default User\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No FSX.CFG there

Looking in "C:\Users\Mav\AppData\Roaming"

Found FSX.CFG in "C:\Users\Mav\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\FSX.CFG"

Now checking DLL.XML ...

... There is a previous DLL.XML, checking for FSUIPC4 section.

... FSUIPC4 section already exists but will be replaced.

     (for FSUIPC4, without Loader)

... FSUIPC4 section of DLL.XML written okay

Now checking for a SimConnect.XML file ...

... No SimConnect.XML file found. This is okay.

Looking in "C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No FSX.CFG there

Sorry, but I cannot read what that says, the picture is far too small and won't enlarge. Please just tell me what it actually says.

 

In case it is the usual SimConnect trust sync problem please refer to the FAQ suforum thread entitled FSX fails to run after FSUIPC4 first installed .

Pete, 

 

Your work around fixed it. This to be exact: 

 

NEW! With effect from version 4.85 of FSUIPC, a small DLL called FSUIPC4_Loader is supplied inside the main downloaded ZIP file. If you place this into the FS Modules folder and re-run the FSUIPC4 installer, then the Loader will be loaded by SimConnect instead of FSUIPC4 directly, and that Loader will load FSUIPC4 itself after a few seconds. This may help get over the SimConnect bug.

 

I downloaded FSUIPC Version 4.91, and then put the included DLL into my FS modules folder and it works without error. 

 

Thanks, 

Maverik
