Admin Permissions?
« on: December 23, 2016, 09:04:18 pm »
I downloaded FSDT DFW and installed it. When installing I got an error saying access denied for some files being installed. I aborted the installation and started FSX only to find that now Couatl is not working. It runs then says there is an error and it needs to restart or quit. if it restarts the same error appears after time. I uninstalled all my FSDT products and they uninstalled with no errors but oddly enough some files still remain. When I try to delete them it says I need administrative permission. I am the admin and the only account on my PC. Not sure what this is but now i can't install any products as I keep getting an access denied error.

All these issues seem a problem caused by a defective antivirus, which has mistakenly blocked the installer because it got a false positive bug.

- Restart Windows

- TURN OFF the antivirus while installing.

- Configure the antivirus to exclude the whole FSX folder while scanning BEFORE launching it for the first time.
