Have a look at this thread, maybe you have the same issue of missing default Simobjectspaths lines in the FSX.CFG file:

Yes all the SImobjectpaths are there in the correct form, so I think that´s not the issue, anything else??

This shows me when loading for example in KLAS and I click to restart coualt and shows me again the message. it keep showing it to me until I click disable coualt. Also I have the FSX folder excluded in my antivirus to prevent erros but it keeps showing me errors.

Are you sure ? That seemed to be the most likely cause. Try to reset all your preferences, by removing the following files/folders:

%APPDATA%\Virtuali
%PROGRAMDATA%\Virtuali\Couatl

Note that, if you remove the %APPDATA%\Virtuali, you'll lose all your airplane and scenery customization you might have done in GSX so, best to copy into a different place, then remove it.

Then, reinstall GSX.

I´m Gonna try that and I´ll let you know, thanks.

Hey Umberto just did that erase those folders and re install GSX and its still the same!!! Anything else you want me to do? I dont know why it keeps doing that

[virtuali]

I'm still convinced it must have something to do with your FSX.CFG file. How's your FSX:SE is installed ? In stand-alone mode, or alongside FSX ?

If it's dual mode, even if FSX is not there anymore, your FSX.CFG is not used, but the one named FSX_SE.CFG, in the %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX_SE folder will be used instead so, maybe you checked the wrong file.

[diegonaves6]

Its stand alone and let me pase here my FSX.CFG if you want to take a look. Everything was working 100% before the updates from the addon manager.

Do not post files like that, because I couldn't possible check them properly, since the forum might change something. Use the Attach function of the forum.

Also, what other 3rd party modules you have installed ?

[diegonaves6]

Ok the CFG is now properly attached and no other modules I use. Well only the Level D 767 and SODE. Only those. Also i just noticed that COuatl just crashes when im at a FSDT or FLightbeam iaport if I put myself in another airport it works properly. It may help you to notice the possible error.

Let me know

Ok the CFG is now properly attached and no other modules I use.

Are you sure ? Your .CFG shows you have or had other modules installed. Could you please post your DLL.XML and EXE.XML files too, located in the same folder. ZIP them together and Attach them.

[diegonaves6]

There you go, I´ve attached those files. let me know.

[virtuali]

I think I understand the problem: you haven't accepted the default suggest location for the FSDT installer and, instead, you assumed it was asking for the FSX folder, so you end up installing the modules into the FSX root folder itself, and I guess this might be a problem under Steam, which might conflict with the Steam protection.

Uninstall everything, and reinstall into a different folder, everything should work, but NOT the FSX:SE root folder.

[diegonaves6]

The default folder that the installer gives me its ProgramData(x86)/AddonManager. Install there? and then how is FSX going to load from that directory or I dont understand. Install everythign ina  different folder and the how to make them work on FSX:SE.??
