Hi All, I installed A2A Skylane in the Programs X86/Steam/FSX. All the screens indicated installation was succesfull. I can't find the logo to open the simulation, all files seem to be OK. C:\Program files X86\steam\steammapps\common\FSX.
A2A shows in the FSX folder with several subfolders, still no way to run the app. Greatly appreciate your input
PC: Dell Alienware area 51 R2, Windows 10x86

Do you own Microsoft Flight Simulator (FSX)?

Hello,
I assume you own FSX Steam edition?
On the installer did it not auto detect your installation of FSX?
thanks,
Lewis

Re: can't run Skylane after "succesful installation"
Thanks for your prompt response, Yes I have FSX steam and the installer provided the right pathway. After finishing it indicated that the app was successfully installed and ready to work. The problem is I can't find the A2A icon to launch the application, in FSX or anywhere else.
I uninstalled the software to make a clean install (deleting folders and roots) and installed again, same thing.. Now I only have 3 remaining opportunities to reinstall the software since 2 have been installed but didn't work.

There is no icon or separate program to launch. You simply start FSX and select the Skylane as your airplane. It should be listed under "A2A Cessna" in the manufacturer tab.

Re: can't run Skylane after "succesful installation"
I re-setted the computer and the OS, re installed the software and now it is working fine.
Is there a way to recover the 3 installs that were lost in this process?
Thanks for your time

Re: can't run Skylane after "succesful installation"
Well, to be precise, there are no "lost installs" - you can run the installer file saved on your computer as often as you want. What is limited, is the amounts of downloads of that installer file. But even those will be reset upon request (and for free) once you run out (this is assuming you bought directly from the A2A shop and not somewhere else).
I would suggest you download and save (instead of opening) the file on your computer in a location where you will be able to find it again (the default "downloads" or "my documents" folder for example... or even on an external hdd or usb stick). That way you do not need to redownload the file again, should the need arise to re-install again. You just double click on the installer file that you saved on your PC previously.

Hello Francisco,
if you purchased direct from the A2A Store let me know the order number and I can reset that downloads for you should you need them.
thanks,
