plco43 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Good Morning All Don't know what's going on. Clicked on the shortcut for Orbx Central this morning, and got the message "The item "Orbx Central.exe" that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly. Do you want to delete this shortcut?". I did a search on both my C: and D: drives and it couldn't find any trace of Orbx Central.exe or Orbx-central. The folder Orbx-central-updater is still present in C:\Users\myname\AppData\Local, and looking inside that folder there is a folder "pending" and a file called package.7z which is 79,874kb. Inside the pending folder are two files, Orbx-central-4.1.23.exe which is 685kb, and update-info.json . The strange thing is it was working fine earlier this week. I've never had a problem with it before. My computer is a fairly new HP with an i5 processor, 16gb RAM, running Windows 10 Home version 1909, C: is a 250gb SSD and D: is a 2Tb hard drive Would appreciate help before I start clicking buttons trying to get it back without knowing what I am doing.

Doug Sawatzky Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Hi Graham It sounds like your antivirus has quarantined it, please check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plco43 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 Hi Doug Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't appear to be the case. I use Norton Internet Security, and I've checked through the quarantine list and the scan logs but there's nothing. It's like it just vanished overnight. I'm going to try downloading and reinstalling it. See what happens. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thanks And I would definitely recommend disabling/add exclusions of Norton for all flight simulator functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plco43 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thanks for the advice Doug. Just downloaded and reinstalled Orbx Central. No problems. Working like it did in the past. I must be going senile or something. Very weird. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
