RESOLVED this is ridiculous...

[siegbrecht]

i downloaded the pnw demo and tried to install on a basic fsx. the installation routine do not let me choose any other folder than C/Programs/ORBX... but when i read around here, it should be in the fsx folder. anyway, i installed succesfully and wanted to start ftx central. guess what? there comes a message up: NO FSX ENTRY FOUND IN REGISTRY... i mean, how is this possible? it isnt, right, because fsx is legal and installed cerrectly. thats poor orbx. even that i cant find any helpful information on your support websites... thats not stat of the art. a solution would be very helpful here, because i tend to buy some stuff. but when such basic things aren´t working, it think twice about buying it.

BTW: where can i find the uninstall? cant find the demo-uninstall anywhere on my pc... another poor thing orbx?

The problem is not poor ORBX, i can assure you. Would you please try the registry fix tool at the bottom of the support page http://www.fullterrain.com/support.html ?

i did before i wrote this lines above.

maybe it sounds harsh, but i think you cant release a prog with such a major issue. it seems i am not the only one.

please dont see this as an personal attack. your work seems to be stunning, but this install-issue turns me off.

EDIT

so, i figured out this.

your registry fix tool isnt working for me. another tool is working well and pointed me on some problem.

this is the tool: TweakFS - Registry Utility for FSX, Version 1.3, TweakFS - Cool Tools for Flight Simulator, http://tweakfs.com

i used this one and when i played around, it showed me a path to a FSX-Demo, previously installed. this was already deleted, but

it seems there is still a registry entry for the demo. orbx of course cant handle an empty folder, so i changed the path in tweakfs to

the new, full version exe of fsx. now it works fine here!

thank you for your support, no offense.

Glad you got it working. Enjoy!
