Fs2004/FSUIPC/Win10 does not connect

[Skino2412]

I have a strange problem with the above mentioned constellation. FSUIPC is registered and works perfectly in FS. Buttons, keys, axes can be configured.
But most of the external programs which access FSUIPC from outside do not recognize that FSUIPC is running and do not connect. This is true for self-made software via FsuipcClient.DLL as well as for others like weather programs etc. A few work. FSinterrogate does not work either. Tested with FSUIPC 3.5, 3.99999w and the current one.
No idea what is going on.

This sounds as if you are running FS2004 "as administrator" (i.e. with elevated privileges), but trying to get programs to talk to it which are running normally. If you must run FS2004 in such a way then you will have to run all of the FSUIPC applications with the same privileges.

That was exactly the solution.
Thank you for the fast and effective help, as always.
