Hello Keith,


 


Welcome to the forums.


 


Please don't write in capital letters.


 


The file you have downloaded is a .zip file.


Before you can run the installer, you must unzip it


to a folder of your choice.


To do this, you can use Winzip or 7zip, both of which


have free or trial versions.


Once you nave done this, right click on the .exe file and select


Run as Administrator.


 


By the way, where did you buy FTX EU Wales from?

Hello Nick,

Thanks for returning so promptly. Sorry, didn't know capitals against the rules. I am not new to FSX been at it a few years. I do use WIZIP always have. Think if I remember rightly when downloading Wales and England I had to open in file. Didn't do it this time, just opened the exe. File, as said all went well UNTILL asked to insert a disc, I have Administrator right to FSX etc but will ensure it when I retry. Trouble is getting old now and forgetting a lot. So will will and enter a post with result.

I thought I bought all three from Flight Store, but I noticed that my record showed only two, the only other supplier I use is the FSPILOTSHOP.so will check back on my records to check.

Thanks again Nick

Regards. Keith

Hello Nick

Did all you said, all working well. Quite surprised at the difference in scenery quality, just looking briefly. I thought that I might have had to swop over to Europe. To get benefits for England and Wales, but seem to get sake in Global. Though I suspect it might not do it for large airports like Cardiff. But will be fun finding out.

Anyway thanks again for your help

Regards

Keith
