Issue

I've just purchased Pacific North West. I've got a few Orbx regions installed, never had any issues until now. This one won't let me install and I can't even uninstall the demo.

 

A communication error occurred when trying to perform this action

Orbx Central Worker failed to launch...System Requirements

No response Received Message Timeout

An error occurred while trying to sync your simulator

 

Action Taken:

I've restarted central, restarted my computer numerous times after each step, made sure I had the prerequisite software in the sticky (deleted and reinstalled in case but no change), I've tried to sync with simulator and it wouldn't let me, I've deleted central and reinstalled, I've used the search function and seen someone had an issue with hard drive space and second drives but don't think that applies to me (got plenty of space). I've made sure i don't have a windows compatibility mode issue. I've tried running central as admin. I've turned off antivirus and still nothing. I'm out of ideas :)

 

Thanks

Hi Craig,

 

It appears Orbx Central is missing one of its key components.

Can you go to C:\Users\Guesty\AppData\Local\Programs\Orbx-central\saturn-win\ and check if OrbxCentralWorker.exe exists? If so, can you double-click on it and see if it runs?

Fixed, cheers.

 

Avast antivirus tried to move OrbxCentralWorker.exe to the chest on running central again. I just created an exception and all appears fine now :) It's downloading.

 

Many thanks for your help!

 

Craig
