FSDT Airports with FSX Steam Edition
pluff:
I have both FSX and FSX steam installed. I downloaded the latest fsdt installers and successfully installed the Hawaii airports into FSX steam. A week later when I try to install the rest of my fsdt airports I do not get the option to install to steam, only to FSX. I guess something may have happened after the last steam update or something has changed in the registry. Is there anything I can try to get the fsdt installer to give back the option to install to steam? I tried with all of my fsdt airports and none are now giving the FSX steam install option.

Something has changed in your registry, because there hasn't been any updates on Steam after the one published January 12th.

Fixing your registry, of course. You must check your FSX registry keys to be pointing to the correct folders, they are located at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator - Steam Edition\10.0 (if FSX:SE is installed together with FSX)
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 ( if FSX:SE is installed stand-alone )

Thank you for your fast response. I discovered that the Setpath for FSX Steam was missing. I imported back my last
regedit backup file, rebooted the computer and presto the Setpath to FSX Steam returned and the FSDT installer now offers the FSX Steam option again and I was able to install KLAX into Steam no problem.
Thanks again.

See the above reply. It's a problem of your registry keys.
