Recent Update Cannot Start Engines

[danewatson]

Merry Christmas to all.

This recent update of MSFS and/or FSUIPC7 has a problem.

I cannot start any GA aircraft either manually or by AutoStart when FSUIPC7 is running.  When I startup MSFS without FSUIPC7 there are no problems.

I have tried running both FSUIPC 7.0.3 as well as 7.0.2.  Just yesterday I decided to purchase the Registered Version.

EDIT: Let me correct one thing - I have discovered that with FSUIPC7 running you can indeed start the aircraft engine but if you shut it down and try to restart the engine, the engine will not even turnover.

Without FSUIPC7 running this issue does not happen.

OK - so I solved my problem even though I have no clue what was wrong.

I uninstalled FSUIPC7, then renamed the directory and installed new, then updated some items in the ini file - everything now works perfectly.

Strange. I'm not sure what happened, but as its now working there is no point in looking into this now. Thanks for reporting back.
