BernieFlyer Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hi Just ran the SODE update and get this as shown below. It is referring to FSX which I no longer have installed. Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hello, as you do not have FSX any more, please open the SODE Platform Manager and unregister it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Ok, thanks Nick. I shall do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 It says it is not registered Nick:- Maybe it has fixed itself or something else caused it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hello, you can fix that by clicking on Register, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 Nope, did not work. Tried Register and got the same message. Must be something causing this but heck, it is working in P3Dv4 so I shan't worry. Thanks Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I wonder if the path at the top is incorrect? Should it be F:\Programs Files\FSX or something else other than F:\Programs Files FSX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 You are right there Nick. The drive F: was trashed and Steam installed. There is no FSX for SODE to find. Do you think I should uninstall SODE and re-install and if so would that cause other addons that utilise SODE to have issues? I do not know enough about how SODE works. I checked ORBX Alderney in P3Dv4 and SODE shows in Addons ok. I think I might just let SODE complain about FSX if it is only used in P3Dv4 and appears to work ok.

Nick Cooper Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I think you can unregister it for FSX, using the SODE platform manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Yes, I tried that and it is already set as Unregistered (see above). When I try and Register (to then Unregister again) I get the same error as above (probably because FSX has gone). If I had known I could probably unregistered before uninstalling FSX but it is too late now. I will try the SODE Forum if there is one and see what they say. Thanks for the ideas Nick. I appreciate your efforts! Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernieFlyer Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 Hi Just in case anybody else has this issue this is what SODE advised and it has worked for me. "It is perfectly possible that the FSX uninstall still has left some entries in the Windows registry active. Those entries are used by SODE to determine if a sim is installed on the machine. You could check the PLTMGR_DETECTION.log file located at C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\log. It will tell you the registry keys in question for FSX. Usually it's SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 -> "SetupPath" If you delete this key, SODE won't assume FSX to be installed anymore."
