The problem of missing menu items under the Addons menu it's usually caused by one of these:

1) Defective antivirus. Download and install with the Antivirus disabled AND configure the antivirus to exclude the whole Addon Manager folder from scanning BEFORE starting the sim.

OR

2) Missing/Corrupted VC++ libraries in your system. See solution in the "Addon Manager not showing up in P3Dv4 **SOLVED**" thread:

Are you sure you ran the Live Updater now ? There's nothing that we have changed in the FSX version of the software, is still using the same VC++ libraries and the same Simconnect version it always used on FSX.

So, either your antivirus is blocking, or something happened to your VC++ libraries.

I just tried it again now, just to be sure, and it works normally with FSX:SE here. Try the suggestions posted here:

Assuming it's not the antivirus, that utility should tell you which files are missing in your system.
