That was fixed in 4.927a, which is the currently supported release.

weird....   I have tried both A and B and still get this error  I just tried to install 4.927a again and it won't let me because the B version is later.

I don't know if this makes a difference but when it was installed I got that windows prompt that says this product may not have installed correctly. 

 

I checked the fsuipc.dll permissions and for some reason it did not have full control checked.  Not sure if that makes a difference but I will try a test flight later.

Well of course you can get around that by deleting or renaming the DLL first. However, the difference between a and b is very small and related to a very very old bg which only semed to matter with one specific  INI file so far.

 

Certainly the error you mention is exactly the one which occurred in 4.927 and was fixed in 4.927a. But as a test you can of course try the original work-around -- setting the InterceptTextMenu parameter to 'No' instead of 'Yes'. However, before you do that please paste in the failing FSUIPC4 LOG file so I can see what is going on. Also I need to know what version of FSX you are using.

 

I checked the fsuipc.dll permissions and for some reason it did not have full control checked.

 

Full control? Of what? FSUIPC4.DLL is loaded as part of FSX. It is the process which has permissions, not one small part of it.

FSX did not crash last time I used it so this might not be useful

I am running FSX with SP2 installed

Okay, good. I know 4.927 crashed EXACTLY as per your original post when running with SP2, and that was the precise problem fixed in 4.927a and of course 4.927b, as in fact your success now proves. If it crashes at all it is 100% consistent because it was due to a hook in the wrong place in SP2 (okay in Acceleration -- the two API.DLLs are different).

 

So, I think you'll be okay, and I suspect the original post was a mix-up and actually using 4.927. However, if you do get a crash do post both the Log file and the Windows crash data.

 

Thank you,

Pete
