[RESOLVED] P3D v4.4 won't start after uninstalling FSX.

Post by NGX Aviation »

Hi, I just uninstalled FSX earlier and when I went into P3D to make sure nothing had happened, the splash screen appeared as per usual, but it then disappeared and the application just closed automatically. I have already tried reinstalling the P3D client but it didn't change anything. Any ideas as to how I would go about fixing this issue? (P3D v4 and FSX had been installed together for quite some time before). Thank you in advance for any help!

Check for the possibility that you have addons in P3D that were in a FSX folder, the splash screen followed by closing can be caused by a problem with an addon (wrong or missing path to the addon files for example).

As far as I'm aware, nothing is missing. Is there an easy way to check if I'm missing anything?

I've fixed the issue. Prepar3D is starting normally and everything is fine! :) I just uninstalled and reinstalled the Aerosoft Airbus and RAAS and it worked! RAAS or something must've mucked about with DLL files when I uninstalled the 32-bit version... Thanks for your help! :D
