That's why I just clicked on the installer and let it do its thing
No, that's not what happened. The first time you ran the installer, it WAITED for you to FREELY choose an installation folder so no, you couldn't just click on it and let doing its thing: you also made a decision on where to install into.
I assume when I didn't choose FREELY a location, and it install under C:\Program Files (x86)\Addon Manager, that's where it was installed before
Wasn't easier if you simply said that you accepted the default suggested location, without noticing that, for the first time, you were allowed to FREELY chose the installation folder ? Like any other Windows program out there, I might say.
The unusual installation was the old one, which never allowed you to accept OR change a suggested location (like any other Windows installer out there), it is NOW, finally, more standard. We had users complaining for years they weren't allowed to install the FSDT products everywhere they wanted...now that you can, like any other Windows program out there, you seem to find it strange.
Does it mean we should have just ignored all users requests, and keep insisting forcing our stuff inside the simulator folder, keep insisting forcing you to install each scenery TWICE (taking TWICE the hard drive space), if you have both FSX and P3D ?
Like I said, never had any issues before, I guess there is always a first for everything.
Again, it's not really possible to fix the issue, also because you still haven't replied to all my questions, which I'll repeat for the 3rd time, at least the one still unanswered:
- Which specific version of P3D you have. Depending on the version, we use different installation system, since the new one is really supported entirely only in 3.3 and 3.4
- Do you see the scenery in the Scenery Library ?
