Unable to install C-182

Post by sage »

I just purchase and tried to install C-182 on my system but got this message: "The Accu-Sim C182 Shylane can't be installed because a valid installation of Lockheed Martin Prepar3Dv4 has not been found on your computer."

I recently install the A2A C-172 without a clinch. I did not change the default installation location. What's going on?

Your program is in the default location—C:\Users\apmech\Documents\Prepar3Dv4 add-ons\A2A\

OS is Windows 10 Pro

I found the problem while I was awaiting your response: Did a repair on P3D and the C-182 installed.

Hi Pat,

This message will generally indicate that the Prepar3D.exe file can't be found at the location specified in the Windows registry. Please can you let us know your installation location for Prepar3D v4 and whether you've made any manual changes to the Prepar3D path (e.g. renaming the folder) after you installed the software.

Thanks,
Nick

My install location is C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4
I think the problem is that I don't have the new installer for P3D

Thanks. . . Clive

Hello Clive,

I checked after your email and noticed you have not downloaded the P3Dv4 installer, but have downloaded the P3Dv2-3 installer. It seems that you are trying to install the wrong software into the wrong simulation platform. Please download the P3Dv4 version of the 182 for it to install and work with P3Dv4.

thanks,
Lewis
