If you are double-clicking the FSUIPC7.exe (after installation) and that does not start FSUIPC7 (you should see a splash screen) Have you installed FSUIPC7? if so, please show me your installation log. If you cannot run the installer, then you probably need to update your VC++ redistributables. 53 minutes ago, charlievine20 said: Also when i try click on the read me it will come up with this- I'm sorry but I cannot help with this - if you have extracted the zip file you downloaded, then you should be able to open the README.txt in any editor. If you cannot do this, it is a windows issue on your machine that you need to resolve - I cannot help with this. I have attached the README.txt. And please give your posts an appropriate title - FSCUIPC7 (sic) means nothing, and a title of FSUIPC7 would apply to every post in this forum, as this IS the FSUIPC7 support forum. I will update it this time. John README.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have no idea why either ,and no idea what you are doing. If you want help, please answer any questions I ask and explain clearly what you are doing. The installation of FSUIPC is straight-forward and should not be difficult: 1. Download the latest Install_FSUIPC7.zip file from www.fsuipc.com 2. unzip the file 3. open and read the Installing and Registering FSUIPC7.pdf document and also take a look at the README.txt 3. Double-click the Install_FSUIPC7.exe file, which will start the installation process. If there are any problems, check any anti-virus software that you have running to see if it has blocked or quarantined anything, and if so either add an exception to allow the installer to run, or disable your anti-virus software before downloading/extracting or running the installer, whichever part is being blocked.

When you double-click it, a message should pop-up asking you if you want to allow an app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your system. You have to agree to this and then the installer will run. If you do not see such a box, then check your task bar (for a shield - it may be iconised). If it is not there, then check the Windows Event Viewer to see if anything is reported there. You must run the installer from an account that can have elevated privileges. If none of this works, I can't help you I am afraid. Try google, e.g. https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/topic/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed-cca7d1b6-65a9-3d98-426b-e9f927e1eb4d https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/try-windows-software-wont-install/ https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/program-installer-wont-open-on-windows-11/b9a0a715-b829-4c21-a920-ce7fe4cd6e71 https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/exe-installer-files-wont-run-on-my-computer.1757906 I am sure your answer lies there somewhere...

John Dowson Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 Maybe check the security properties of the installer - right-click and select properties. The security tab should look similar to this: Check that it has the correct permissions. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had issue with installations as well where it reports that .PDF won't install and process stops. I removed FSUIPC thinking that fresh install will help. But it didn't. Now when I launch MSFS, on it's own I am getting still FSUIPC, which means it works with some old version of yours. I mean it works but I can't download latest version and use it.

I presume it is this one: If so, please post in that topic. If so, I have already responded there - have you read that response? I have no idea why people are having such problems with the installer - there has been no change in the installer for a long time (over a year), except for the files that it installs. Do you have an InstallFSUIPC7.log? If so, show me that. But PLEASE use the topic you created for your issue, and not post in topics for other issues which are not the same. And make sure you run the installer from Windows Explorer, not in WinRar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And like every time, always worked, but it get stuck on odd place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I responded to your response., in your original topic. For some reason I had installed in my community folder as well. Not sure if that need to be there. I deleted that old, removed FSUIPC from PC (before that I unistalled everything), downloaded fresh copy and installed new version. Appears to be OK now. Not sure why I had installed in several places. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
