Installation not installing the aircraft

Post by UKJim »

Hi,

As a lot of people know I'm a huge fan of the comanche. I had an issue with ChasePlane and the A2A Comanche walkaround so I asked how to resolve - they said to reinstall the A2A plane.

So I uninstalled and deleted all relevant folders from the fsx airplane directory, the my documents A2A folder and the A2A folder in the FSX directory too.

I run the installer again checking the correct paths are set - it looked like it installed but when I go to the fsx airplane directory the A2A Comanche is not there?

I tried this several times with no success.

Please help as I want my Comanche back.

Thanks
Jim

The installer will always install it does sound like you have the directory incorrect. This can often be caused by one to many / in the path. You may have a double installation inside your sim directory somewhere.

Thanks Lewis (long time no speak)

I checked the path and I checked the location for duplicate folders at the time but there was nothing wrong - it just didn't install.
What I did notice was there was a green border around the main install window and also around any boxes that popped up too.

Strange thing is, I run the installer again last night and the green border had gone and it installed just fine. I have not a clue what changed but at least it's installed now :)

Speak soon
Jim

Hello,

could it be a security software issue picking up the install as a threat and blocking it?

thanks

Turned off the firewall but who knows - either way sorted now and I've never had it before so probably just a one off
