If you see the green message in sim indicating that a profile has been loaded and all the other button and switches are working fine, I'd say you are good. Might be something with the Duke template. We'll come back to you.

Are you saying that the issue is the same like before, or that you are now seeing a different issue with the Duke v2 template? As I understand, the Avionics BUS1 switch (the left white one in the upper row on the yoke) is still not working correctly.

Just to be sure: have you tried using this template? There, we are using the K:TOGGLE_GENALT_BUS1_CONTACT variable for the Avionics Bus1 switch. You are saying it is not working for you out of the box?

Hi Paul, we'll investigate and see if we can replicate.

Hi, thanks for the report. We've identified an issue with that in v5 which will be fixed.

Check you have this entry in your add-ons.cfg and that it holds a valid PATH: Without this module you will not see any taxi- or runway lighting in Geneva.

Hi, in addition to Mathijs' sim question, do you have this menu entry present and enabled?

Hi Scarlet, just like Dave and Mathijs said: as long as you don't want to do some fancy stuff with custom aircraft functionality not available in the default fsx control assignments you don't need the software. Just assign the functionality you like via fsx and you should be good to go.

There is also work being done to make PMDGs SDK functionality directly compatible with the Honeycomb. Cannot give you a timeframe, though.

I'm glad to hear you got it solved so far. Because we believe this topic has been answered we have closed it. If you have any more questions feel free to open a new topic.

Honestly, I really don't know right now...as you have nothing in EventViewer it could basically be anything. When you start P3D, do you see Prepar3d.exe in the Task Manager? And it disappears before the loading splash screen gets shown? Otherwise, maybe there is someone else able to chime in with further suggestions. Regarding the runtimes you could try this. But it really is just a shot in the dark right now.

Ok...this excludes DDE as the culprit as it won't get loaded by P3D anymore. So somehow something else seems to have gotten seriously broken with your install. Right now I'm also at a loss, as you've also already tried some things. Have you also tried deinstalling Office, as your problems seem to have started with this? Maybe it messed with some of the Visual C++ runtimes.

Hmm...that doesn't look like it is related to DDE anymore, then. But to make fully sure please deactivate it in LSGGConfig again and check in "C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\add-ons.cfg" that it is really deactivated: [Package.x] PATH=...\Dynamic Display Engine TITLE=Aerosoft Dynamic Display Engine ACTIVE=false REQUIRED=false Then try to start P3D again.
