Not able to install

Post by StevenO »

Thank you for the gratuitous P40......

I am not able to install it as each time i run the installer in admin mode i receive the message:

"The Accu-Sim P-40 Warhawk can't be installed because a valid installation of Lockheed Martin Prepar3D v4 has not been found on you computer"

I saw where an earlier post of this was solved by running the repair feature. I did this but but it did not help. I have not made any changes to the placement folder of the original installation. P3Dv4.5 is the latest ver.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Yes, this message indicates that the Prepar3D.exe can't be found in the location specified in the Windows registry.

Running a repair on the sim will usually fix this, however do you use any "registry cleaner" type software?

Also, what's your install path for P3Dv4 and is this your first Accu-Sim product for the platform?

Thanks,

Hello,

I have used ccleaner in the past, but have stopped and have installed other A2A a/c without issue afterward. My install path is in a separate drive other than C drive. More specifically D:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D V4. Also, I did have issue running the repair feature from the apps install/uninstall area of windows. Couldn't find the setup prepar 3d.exe. I had to copy the file into the folder to get it to work, but it seemed to.

Thank you,

Steve

edit: I figured it out.....thank you for your time.
