SizzlingPopcorn Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I wanted to see what the MSFS default, so I went to content manager and deleted the Orbx file. After viewing the default, I tried to reinstall from the marketplace and it sends me to the content manager, but there is no option to reinstall. I also have the files on Orbx Central and installed them that way, but I still see the default content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Hello, welcome to the forum. You appear to be suggesting that you have bought copies of a product from Orbx Direct and the same product from the Microsoft Marketplace, is this correct?

SizzlingPopcorn Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Yes, I'm a reviewer. There doesn't seem to be a re-install function within marketplace/content manager, however, the Orbx central version is not loading either. I'm seeing the default airport and scenery. This is for the London City Airport and landmarks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Hello, I have no experience of how two copies of the same product might interact, could it be that they could cancel each other out, or even if you disable one, you disable both. I'm just guessing of course. I can tell you that Orbx Central installs its products to either the Community folder, or if an Orbx Central Library is chosen as the installation option, the files are placed into that and a shortcut added to the Community folder. As far as Orbx Central is concerned, you could perhaps check that the shortcut is there and in any event, run Sync Simulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SizzlingPopcorn Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 I'm currently doing a reset on the simulator, so it's deleted everything from community and resetting - not a full uninstall, but it almost looks like it because it's re-downloading/installing the simulator. I won't need to go back to sim default on those assets again and I'll keep them uninstalled on from Orbx Central, hoping the Content Manager brings the two London addons back (so they don't interfere with each other). All other addons I have are through Central, so there shouldn't be an issue. I'll keep you posted. Mid-way through the 100+GB. Talking about libraries. If I were to choose that method, I can then create different libraries for areas that I'm flying and only have those load rather than everything in Community?

Nick Cooper Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Hello, that's not exactly how they work, they are based on the X Plane 11 method of adding shortcuts but unless the shortcuts are manually removed, you cannot enable or disable them with Orbx Central.

SizzlingPopcorn Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 The reset now gives me the download option in the marketplace. I'll use the assets from Orbx Central instead. @Nick Cooper Please change this to resolved. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
