Hello trainut,

 

If you could post the error log as requested, it will explain the problem and the guys here can guide you in the right direction.

 

It is at C: - Users - YOUR NAME - AppData - Local - Orbx/ftxc3.log

Hello Dave,

 

The errors = The 'link' start tag on line 30 position 3 does not match the end tag of 'head'. Line 66, position 4. and = System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

 

I am sorry, but with this I am out of my depth, hopefully Richard or another of the knowledgeable devs will see it and guide you.

Hello Dave,

 

You could be right about that Mandatory security patch KB4041676 which was released by Microsoft on Tuesday, there have ben reports in the media regarding computer crashes and Blue Screens of Death and other problems linked to it.

 

In theory it should only affect your C: drive and although your P3Dv4 is on your F: drive there are links to C:

 

In your situation I would do an uninstall and reinstall of P3Dv4, in doing so I would follow Elaines excellent tutorial, below, because for a clean install you will also need to remove the links on C: drive. Check also about deactivating your license before the uninstall.
