Chrisinnewark Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I've recently decided to come back to flight simming and am trying to move from FSX boxed to the Steam version. Reading online the general consensus of opinion seemed to say that the best thing to do was uninstall all addon products and then to uninstall FSX boxed before installing FSX SE and reinstalling all addons - so this is what I've done. The first addon I tried reinstalling was FTX Global so I redownloaded the allocation, unzipped it and ran the application as administrator. I got as far as selecting 'FSX:SE(in parallel with FSX:boxed' (the only option available) but when I then clicked next I got the following error message (see picture). I'm guessing it's because I don't have the boxed edition installed any more but how do I get passed this with just the Steam edition installed?

Chrisinnewark Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Issue is now solved. When I tried installing again it worked fine - I guess I just needed to reboot my PC to fix the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else did you do besides restarting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yanif Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Unfortunately, I am stuck with this error no matter what I do. I followed exactly the workaround posted by merlinux in the sticky section and edited the registry, and I end up with this msg. Here is the screen shot. How do I contact support?
