in the p3dv4.4 Windows I see 5.15 is installed as registered user

Something is wrong with your P3D installation! The message only appears with versions of FSUIPC later than 5.1 if it detects too early a version of P3D. FSUIPC uses facilities only added since P3D4.1.

Please look in the P3D Modules folder for the FSUIPC5.LOG file. It will show what version it detects. Paste it here if you cannot figure it out. Also check the version number stated by P3D in its menu.

thank you for your answer, here is the row from the log file: 

 75141 Running in "Lockheed Martin® Prepar3D® v4", Version: 4.4.16.27077 (SimConnect: 4.4.0.0)  -     the same is in p3dv4.4 - there is the correct 5.15 FSUIPC and 4.4.16.27077

there are some other users in facebookgroup p3d with the same problem

Well, one of the modules in your 4.4 installation is corrupt. The message you showed refers to the list of FS controls FSUIPC obtains automatically.

Try re-installing the P3D client (only). that doesn't take log (uoi need to uninstall first via the Windows "Programs" app -- you can do this and retain your registration).

If you still need to come back here, please paste the entire LOG file after closing P3D. You can use the <> button above the edit area in order to enclose it tidily.

Why aren't they posting here, then?

This aspect of FSUIPC hasn't changed since P3D4.1 times and the versions of FSUIPC since then. Before that FSUIPC provided a fixed list of FS controls which didn't change with P3D additions.

Pete, I looked in the old folder from last year and there is in the logfile : Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit reported as Build 16299, Release ID: 1709 and then in the next row

Prepar3D.exe version = 4.2.21.24048     (with FSUIPC 5.123c)

Reading options from "D:\Modules\FSUIPC5.ini"

now in the actual logfile is

Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit reported as Build 16299, Release ID: 1809 und in the next row is no version of Prepare3D.exe rather

Reading options from "D:\Modules\FSUIPC5.ini"

 

I think my problem exists since updating W10 to 1809. it would be coincidence that I have done the W10 update and then p3D update to 4.4

Well, many users are certainly using Win10 1809 without such a problem. Could you paste the entire (new) log please? Did you try the Client re-install as suggested?

yes, I have reinstalled the client but there are no changes

Very strange. This implies that the standard Windows function "GetFileVersionInfo" failed, or at least returned wrong information. It examines the version information in Prepar3D.exe in your main P3D folder. Perhaps you could find that, right-click on it, select Properties and ensure that it too shows 4.4.16.27077.

That P3D version shown later (time 75141) is supplied by SimConnect after connecting, too late though for correct FSUIPC initialisation.

Can you also try running P3D by right-clicking on it and selecting "run as ... administrator".  This gives it extra privileges. Maybe Windows is preventing the version info being read!? (Which would be very bad).

One other check you could do, please. In FSUIPC's Options, go to Logging. In the Monitor facility, right hand side, enter 3124 for the Offset and U8 for the Type. Then check Normal log below, and see what FSUIPC logs for the value in 3124.

Failing help provided by these actions, I will probably have to provide a test version of FSUIPC with extra logging around the code concerned.

Pete

1. right click on prepar3d.exe shows correct version 4.416.27077  

2. starting as admin no change

3. logging with 3124

There's the problem. the version information is not being supplied by Windows!

I assume that was a typo for 4.4.16.27077?

I'm afraid this will need further investigation with added logging. i'll see if that can be dealt with tomorrow and let you know.

Okay. I've added logging to the part where FSUIPC requests the File Version information. Please download FSUIPC5150c.zip and run that, then show me the Log. (The ZIP only contains the DLL to place into yout P3D Modules folder).

Thank you for your support Pete, I've done that now and here is the log

There's the problem, though I've no idea what is causing it. A function asking Windows to tell FSUIPC where its containing Process is (that's Prepar3D.EXE of course) is saying it is in "\Device\HarddiskVolume4\Prepar3D.exe".

That isn't a valid path in any case, hence the error 3 which is "path not found". If "Device" was the name of your PC, there should be \\ in front of it, not a single \. And having a shared path called "HarddiskVolume4" seems very odd.

I note from earlier that your P3D is installed in the ROOT directory of drive D, not in any folder at all. That is very odd. Is there a reason for that? And do you have a PC called "Device" and a shared folder called "HarddiskVolume4"?

Perhaps some description of exactly how you have configured your system would be useful, please, because we are really at a loss. It is as if standard Windows functions calls are returning unusable nonsense!

[LATER]
I've made another build which may or may not throw more light onto this mystery. Please try FSUIPC5150d.zip

prepar3d.exe is (very stupid) in root from D:\ but since beginning with p3d it is there and all was working well. There is no "HarddiskVolume4" and no"DEVICE"

now I started with the 5150d and there are no errors p3d starts normaly 🙂

Good. I merely changed to a simpler version of a Windows function call to get the P3D EXE path. I think Win10 1809 has a bug, though seemingly only affecting root folder installations (which are rare) as there are really no other reports (at least here, where they should be).
