RESOLVED FTX Central load issue

[boetie]

Hi - Any suggestions? I have recently done a clean install of FSX including FTX add ons and want to avoid doing the same again if possible. My FTX Central will not load. It will not go past the loading screen thus I can't pick my region as they don't show. Windows pops up an error - Access To The Path C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight SimulatorX\Scenery\World\Texture\oo3g2wi1.bmp" is denied. The unhandled exception is below. Oh - I've also downloaded the patches and libraries. Any help would be most appreciated.

Cheers

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I wish I could help but I do not know a solution

Hello,

Can you try right-clicking on the FTXcentral desktop icon and go into the properties, and make sure its set to run as "admin"

[boetie]

Thanks Tim - no joy unfortunately. My wife has sprung a surprise break to Caloundra for five days so will have a fiddle on my return, No flying for a week! I'll probably end up reinstalling everything, (and purchasing FTX Caloundra) I was just trying to avoid downloading the patches again because they were downloading at a snails pace. Thanks for your trouble.

Reinstalled everything from FSX up. Resolved the issue - now all good. Thanks
