hjmx Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Out of a sudden, Orbx Central does not work anymore. It is even worse because when I start the app the computer either hangs and I have to do a cold start or I get directly a BSOD. All other programs including sims work fine. What can I do?

Nick Cooper Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Hello, please first try reinstalling it. Uninstall Orbx Central using the Windows Control Panel and then delete C:\Users\your name\AppData\Local\orbx-central-updater and C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Orbx\Central. Then reinstall it from any of the "Get Central" links at Orbx Direct 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjmx Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Thanks, but unfortunately, this did not help. I followed your instructions in every detail, restarted my PC and installed Orbx Central from Orbx Direct download. As soon as I double click the OC icon I get: BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH Message: "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR" Edited September 18, 2021 by hjmx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Hello, did you also replace the shortcut and have you tried starting it from C:\Users\your name\AppData\Local\Programs\orbx-central\Orbx Central.exe Your error message appears to be connected to hardware, rather than software. https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www/uk/en/support/articles/000028099/processors/intel-core-processors.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjmx Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Could be, but I doubt it. The only BSODs I had in recent years were connect with Orbx Central. I had the problem some months ago but got it cured via a System Restore. As mentioned already, everything on this PC runs correctly, MSFS and P3D included.

hjmx Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Got it work again ... Don't ask how. Two System Restore actions to a recent restore point, several uninstalls and reinstalls, but finally OC runs on my computer again. I have still some hassle with the library. Each time I run OC, I get the Welcome Screen and it wants me to set up libraries. I've then scanned for my existing libraries and it found two which is correct. Activated/added both and they seem to be active because OC already showed an available update for NZ. How can I get rid of the Welcome Screen/asking for libraries?

Nick Cooper Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Hello, I wonder if running Orbx Central as an administrator might help? Either that or lowering your user account control setting. It seems that Windows is preventing your settings from being saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
