John Dowson Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 I don't know but you should not install FSUIPC under your Documents folder. Please select a folder not under a windows protected folder. 4 minutes ago, yindengxie said: Windows 10, P3D v5, FSUIPC6 v6.0.11 Only the latest version of FSUIPC6 is supported, which is v6.1.8. Please update. Any further issues with installation, please attach your InstallFSUIPC6.log file. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The installer will (or should) still create an add-on.xml file under your Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons folder (under an FSUIPC6 folder). The actual FSUIPC6 installation folder should reside elsewhere, and not under a windows-protected folder. Try installing under C:\FSUIPC6 or C:\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6. 1 hour ago, yindengxie said: Before, I have been installed them in C:\User\..\Document\ No problem! Today, I am first to meet the problem. Windows updates can affect the behaviour of these folders, especially with the use of cloud back-up services, such as OneDrive, which microsoft seem to be pushing quite aggresively. 1 hour ago, yindengxie said: Windows 10, P3D v5, FSUIPC6 v6.0.11 As I have said, the latest version is 6.1.8, and ONLY the latest version is supported. Please download and install the latest version in a non-windows protected folder. If you have any issues after doing this, please attach your InstallFSUIPC6.log file.

Aviator1979 Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 Beware that if u have windows 10 there are 2 documents folders, i had it also in the past, where i have the ordinary Documents folder and one in users/name/documents. installation of fsuipc was all the time in users/name/documents, so nothing registered in the sim. it took a long time before i was aware of this issue. ps like John said that OneDrive thing messed with al those folders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 I'm facing the same problem. The installer closed by itself after entering the installation page. The green loading bar ran up to around 15% and the installer closed by itself without progressing further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Where are you trying to install FSUIPC6? Check that you are not trying to install into a windows protected folder. Also, check your VC++ redistributables are up-to-date. If you get the same issue, try installing again without selecting the 'add-on.xml' component.

Taz Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Thank you for the reply That's correct, I was trying to install FSUIPC 6. Update: Somehow I got it working by deselecting "add-on.xml". The "Document" folder that you can find the FSUIPC Folder is under the "User" file, which is different from the one that you'd usually access your P3D addons.

The documents for FSUIPC6 should be installed under a Documents\FSUIPC6 - do you have them installed there? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khalilio Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 I am having the same problem. Using Windows 11 with all system updates to date and P3d V5.3. Downloaded FSUIPC6 V6.1.9 and tried to install it to a folder where I have full access rights using the Add-on.xml method. The installer launches ans shows the progress bar with "saving add-on.xml..." without any further progress. After about 5 seconds, the installation window dissapears without throwing any messages. No logs are generated. When I chose to install using the FSUIPC6.dll method, the installation completes successfully; however, when I view the FSUIPC plugin, it does not have any options for configuration. All I want is to properly configure my ThrustMaster TCA Boeing throttles. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am still unable to install using the xml method, and when I install using the dll method I still can't see the tabs in the Add On. I have registered the product at the end of the installation, and the key file is already located in the correct folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 Make sure that you have not installed FSUIPC6 under your windows Documents folder, or in any other Windows protected folder. If you have, re-install into a different location. Any further questions, please attach your InstallFSUIPC6.log file as well as your FSUIPC6.log file.

Larry London Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 I recently re-installed FSUIPC6 as I was having difficulty opening the menu in Prepare3d V5. It shows in the menu and is checked in the add-ons but when I click on the FSUIPC menu I do not get the pop up screen. Attached are log files.

John Dowson Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 First, you ran the installer from within the zip file: Quote Running in folder 'C:\Users\Larry London\AppData\Local\Temp\Temp2_FSUIPC6.zip\FSUIPC6' This invariable causes issues. You need to extract the contents of the zip file first, before running the installer. Then, when you install, please choose a non-windows protected folder, so not under Program Files (where you installed) and not under Documents - as I said above: On 5/4/2022 at 3:40 PM, John Dowson said: The installer will (or should) still create an add-on.xml file under your Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons folder (under an FSUIPC6 folder). The actual FSUIPC6 installation folder should reside elsewhere, and not under a windows-protected folder. Try installing under C:\FSUIPC6 or C:\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\FSUIPC6. Try uninstalling FSUIPC6 before installing again (after extracting!), using the uninstaller in the FSUIPC6 installation folder: C:\Program Files\FSUIPC\uninstallFSUIPC6.exe John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry London Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 I comInstallFSUIPC6.logpletely uninstalled FSUIPC6. I installed FSUIPC6 to C:\FSUIPC6. Still will not open from the Prepare3d V5 Add on Menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 Is there an FSUIPC6.log and FSUIPC6.ini file in your installation folder (C:\FSUIPC6\)? If so, please show them to me. If the menu entry is there but the FSUIPC main window isn't being displayed, I can only think that it is being displayed outside your screen coordinates. Can you see it if you hover over the P3D task-bar icon? If you have a size/position instruction in your FSUIPC6.ini, which will be the ini parameter Window under [General], then remove that and try again.
