Not paying attention to update specs.

Downloaded and installed the Spitfire updater failing to note the 'ACCUSIM' part. My version is not Accusim and now causes an FSX fatal error trying to load. Is there a way to uninstall this update?

Hello

you can un-install the Spitfire and then manually remove any remaining files. If you need help knowing where these might be let us know,

thanks,

Forgot to mention, I also have your B17 (non accusim). After I uninstall the Spitfire, what files should I leave in place so as not to jeopardize the B17?

Hello,

do you have any Accu-sim products installed? Need to know so I can advise what to delete and what not too.

thanks,
Lewis

No Accusim installed.

Hello,

First uninstall the Spitfire as normal, using windows control panel.

Then clean up any files/folders that might have been left over from the mistaken update. Some places to look;

-Microsoft Flight Simulator X\A2A\Spitfire

-Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Gauges\accusim

-Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Gauges\accusim_xml

-Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\WoP3_Spitfire

-Documents\A2A\FSX\Spitfire

thanks,
Lewis

Unfortunately still corrupted. Removed all you mentioned and anything suspect - there is a shared folder covering 'service installer (.dll/.exe/.exedebug) in FSX/A2A but it was installed with the Spitfire download today. Interestingly enough my B17 was also exposed to the same updater but apparently survived unscathed. FWIW I downloaded a pristine copy of the Spitfire folder from your site - should have nothing Accusim but it's the same. Also of note - attempting to load the Spitfire also takes out my EZDOK camera program.
9/27/14 And now the good news. Found the site http://www.tweaking.com ran their repair program and all's well. Don't know the problem but it's gone.
