Nothing seems to happen when I click the GSX button within MSFS
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\GSX\__init__.py", line 411, in onAppStart
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'emulateMenu_MSFS'

your error has been discussed in several posts, and it's the sure indication you haven't got the latest files, because the servers in your area haven't completed sync all new files, see here:

and follow the suggestions there.

Why not upload the latest files to a new area on the cloud servers rather than mixing old files?

It will still take time to replicate them, because there are so many ( 25000 ) and must spread over 260 servers. And, if we did that, there's a risk our server might not handle the load so, not only nobody will be able to download anything, but it might an abrupt server crashing might cause issues to the files that are still replicating.

Understood, but why not uploading the massive amount of files some days BEFORE release, so that these problems occuring now with some files not updating because they did not yet reach the servers will be obsolete? Well for your customers as they can be sure to receive the newest files and well for your support time because there are not so much (and repeated) questions. A win-win-situation isn't it?

Yes, that might have been better, but we never released something so big, so we didn't expect it caused so many issue, I think it's because there are just too many users so, the nodes are replicating slower because of that. This because we DID have the files several days BEFORE, when we were in Beta, but testers and youtubers are not thousands of users.

Thanks after many hours of troubleshooting, it finally seems to be working
