The '-FastLaunch' option is automatically added to start MSFS store installed versions, but I don't think this is possible with the steam version as a command line parameter.

To use this option with steam, open your library in Steam, right-click on MSFS and select Properties. Under the General tab, click SET LAUNCH OPTIONS, then enter -FastLaunch in the pop-up dialog.

Today, I noticed a new icon on my desktop for what I thought was just the starting of FSUIPC7. I was amazed that it started MSFS and FSUIPC7 together. I have the boxed Premium Deluxe version, which uses MS Store. Glad for one side that this works, but now I wonder how this will affect MSAddon Linker and the presets, as I usually launch MSFS via that app, so not to install everything in the Community folder!

When you start with MSFSAddon Linker, FSUIPC7 does not show that it is launched, BUT when you select Fly it shows up in the BRH corner in the "hide"box.

for one side that this works, but now I wonder how this will affect MSAddon Linker and the presets, as I usually launch MSFS via that app, so not to install everything in the Community folder!

I know nothing about MSAddon Linker. if you use that to launch MSFS, then can it also launch FSUIPC7? Alternatively, if its ok to start this after MSFS, then you could use FSUIPC's run Programs facilities to start this. Or you could manually change the provided batch script to start MSFSAddon Linker instead of starting MSFS.

When you start with MSFSAddon Linker, FSUIPC7 does not show that it is launched

It wouldn't if you are not starting it.

BUT when you select Fly it shows up in the BRH corner in the "hide"box.

This I don't understand. So it is running? What launched it?

Your installation looks fine, and I don't think using MSFSAddons linker should affect the batch start-up script (and it is working for Katoema!).
Can you try starting by double-clicking the file MSFSwithFSUIPC7.bat (located in your installation folder). Using this there will be a command window created (maybe iconized) - please check that for errors.

Also, if you can right-click your standard MSFS start-up icon, select Properties and tell me what it says in the URL field please.

@John DowsonHello John. OK I can clarify that you can select whatever in MSFSAddon Linker, but if you start MSFS directly from the MSFSAddon Linker app, FSUIPC7 does not launch. However, if you select whatever in the MSFSAddon Linker that you want to run, you must launch from the new MSFS/FSUIPC7 desktop icon and everything will run as you have selected i.e., MSFS, FSUIPC7 and what you have selected in MSFSAddon Linker.

It will be up to the author of MSFSAddon Linker to test how it can be used directly I will copy this response to him.

Thanks

Martin

Thanks for your help John. The .bat file just brings up FSUIPC after the splash screen, and the only way I start MSFS is from the Windows 10 start menu, and there is no properties to select. I have also discovered that the fast launch in Addons linker also doesnt work. Plus the task bar Msfs icon that I create keeps disappearing. So I think there is something amiss my end

Then why not start FSUIPC7 from the MSFSAddon Linker and forget the FSUIPC7 batch script?

Well, it won't launch on its own with MSFS unless the provided batch file is used. As I said, can't MSFSAddon linker start FSUIPC7?

This is what is confusing me. Are you launching  MSFS/FSUIPC7 using the desktop icon manually or using MSFSAddon Linker? If the former, what is starting MSFSAddon linker?
If the latter, then that seems to solve any issues, no?
Seems like you have a choice of either
   1. use MSFSAddon linker to start MSFS and also start FSUIPC7
   2. use MSFSAddon linker to start both MSFS and FSUIPC7 by getting it to call the MSFS/FSUIPC7 batch script or desktop link
   3. change the FSUIPC7 batch script to start MSFSAddon Linker (which would then start MSFS) instead of MSFS directly

The choice is probably restricted by what MSFSAddon linker can do.

I'll take a look at the MSFSAddon linker at some point, but I won't have time for this for a while.

@Paulcoy That does sound strange... Did you try the batch file directly and checking the contents of the command window for the error? Alternatively, open a command prompt and enter the following and let me know what error you get (or if MSFS starts):
    cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -FastLaunch
You can also try
    start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -FastLaunch

@John Dowson I have sent a PM to the author, as he set up my link, because I do not use the full intro for MSFS, as it misses this out and reduces the time it takes to launch MSFS.

 

All MSFSAddon Linker undertakes is to create symbolic links from the Community folder to a folder called "MSFS Addons" and this is where all the "Community" items are held. You can then create presets which, in essence, will only launch what is in that preset.

At present I select the preset, but use the MSFS/FSUIPC icon to undertake the launch and can only launch what the preset is tricking what is "in" the Community folder. You are correct that MSFS/FSUIPC7 should be able to be launched by MSFSAddon Linker (this is undertaken from being set up from the options box in the app). The author has to look at MSFS/FSUIPC7/FSJumpstarter to provide me with the correct solution.

Just for clarification, I dont use Addon Linker to start MSFS.

Ok. But this seems to contradict your previous statement:

Like Katoema, I also use MSFS Addons Linker.

Not to worry, as I don't think this relate to your problem.

I put both command prompts as Administrator in and after clicking enter it went straight back to  C \WINDOWS\ system32>

Well, you shouldn't have done this as an Adminstrator, but it shouldn't matter. But the folder you are starting things from (C \WINDOWS\ system32>) might. Maybe try it again from a non-admin account, and from a non protected folder (if you start a command prompt as a non-admin, it should default to your home folder).

I have also discovered that the fast launch in Addons linker also doesnt work. Plus the task bar Msfs icon that I create keeps disappearing. So I think there is something amiss my end

Yes, it does seem that something is amiss in your MSFS installation. If its the -FastLaunch option that is confusing things, you could try removing that option from the line in the MSFSwithFSUIPC7.bat file to see if that makes a difference.

Really, you need to determine what command to use to start MSFS. The next time you install, I suggest that you opt to create the desktop start icon, which you can then use to determine the command used (from the URL field in the properties). I have no idea why the standard command that works for almost everyone else is not working for you.

Have you tried running the desktop link as administrator (right-click and select 'Run as administrator')? Maybe also worth trying, but if the start commands don't work in a command window, I doubt they will work from using the link.

I can't open the .bat as a Commant Prompt to see any details, it just instantly runs your splash screen. Yes I do use Addons Linker but only as a replacement for the Community folder, and not to start MSFS. I know this has been asked before, but can you tell me personaliy the best way to completely uninstall FSUIPC7 including any registry items. Then I will re install to default locations

Right-click on the MSFSwithFSUIPC7.bat file, located in your FSUIPC7 installation folder (i.e. not the link on your desktop) in windows explorer, an select 'Edit' or 'Edit with Notepad++' (or whatever your preferred editor is).

Run the uninstaller that is generated in the installation process. You can also find this in your FSUIPC7 installation folder. You can also uninstall using the windows settings apps uninstall page, which will run the uninstaller for you.

Ok. But I didn't need to see your bat file - I know what is in it! I was just suggesting that you could open it and play around with the command that starts MSFS (including removing the FastLaunch option) to see if you can get it to work. The command is at line 7:
    cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -FastLaunch
Its the same for every MS Store user. This command uses your user AppsFolder  settings, which may be the issue. I don't think uninstalling and re-installing FSUIPC7 is going to help.

@John Dowson I placed the bat file D:\FSUIPC7\MSFSwithFSUIPC7.bat into the Custom FS start EXE: address box of the MSFSAddon Linker app and it started and launched MSFS and FSUIPC7 and the preset I selected. And, to boot, the MSFS Jump Starter to reduce loading time.

One happy simmer here now and thank you for your direction.
