Flight One say there is no update for their Registry Repair tool so if you have Windows 64 bit you have to use Regedit and scroll through as per the earlier post - it works okay though.

After a couple of false starts I got the registry fix to work and have two FSX installations with separate scenery config files
I tried using the Flight One registry repair tool but that did not work and I think that is because it is set up for a 32 bit operating system path and lacks the
\wow6432Node\ entry in the path to find the correct point in the registry on my Windows 7 64 bit edition
I have posted a query on the F1 forums to see if there can be a 64bit version available to save having to navigate through the registry each time to change things
Perhaps if someone at ORBX could produce a similar tool for both 32 and 64 bit operation it would make it very easy for anyone wanting to install into both FSX and FSX-SE to do so quickly and there would be no need to alter the standard auto installers for any of the ORBX products
I plan to run both FSX versions so I can divide the large number of scenery add-ons I have amassed between them to reduce the initial loading time - I have all the Horizon UK photo scenery and it can take up to 10 minutes to load a flight within that area but about 3 minutes if I deactivate it and use only ORBX,UTX and some add-on airports

Temporary workaround for installing Orbx scenery with FSX:SE

Have you gone through the workaround procedure at the start of this thread carefully to update the registry entry AND amend the FTXSettings.xml files in the ORBX folder under Scripts. You must do both or the installation will fail. I omitted the latter at first and realised my error and I then got it to work ok.
