Please see the message I am getting all the time starting FSX. I ran an uninstall and install already and deleted the entire Fsdreamteam folder before the installation. It does not help whatever I am doing.

That doesn't have anything to do with our sceneries or our installers, something else coming from another product has changed a parameter in your EXE.XML file, to set an option that enables manual loading for all modules.
Open the EXE.XML file, located at %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX and check the following lines:
<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
This should be set to False, we don't touch that setting at all, assuming that you (or another product) might have a reason to set it to True, for example being able to manually check what's being started.

This is in the EXE.XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
<Descr>Launch</Descr>
<Filename>EXE.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Launch.ManualLoad>True</Launch.ManualLoad>
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>Couatl</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>fsdreamteam\couatl\couatl.exe</Path>
</Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>

<Launch.ManualLoad>True</Launch.ManualLoad>
That's confirms exactly what I've said in my previous message:
This should be set to False
As I've said, none of our installers will ever touch this line, and this is what is causing FSX asking for manual confirmation to run any addon module. Something else must have changed it, surely not the ZurichX installer nor any other of our installers.

This is strange, because the issue happend right after the installation of Zurich 2.0.
What would be the correct setting in this file to avoid this is asked all the time?

There must have been a coincidence, there's nowhere in any of our installers any code that changes that line. If you want proof of this, try setting it to False, run the installer again, and you'll see it will not be changed.

As I've said in my previous two messages:
This should be set to False
That means, the whole line should be:
<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
Which is the default setting.

Will try this change on Thursday and report.
Thanks so far for your prompt reply.
