Please re-install your bus following these steps (to the point):

  1. Using the software control applet de-install the current busses
  2. De-activate your virus scanner (there is at least one that gives a false positive)
  3. Stop all "Steam" services running in the background (use the Windows Task Manager to check)
  4. Enable your Windows Firewall (if on Windows 10)
  5. Install the new version (as Administrator, i.e. right click the installer and select "Run as Administrator)
  6. Activate your virus scanner

Definitely not, otherwise it wouldnt work at all.

What OS do you have?

Which sim and which exact version?

Looks like a missing fonts issues to me. If you've already tried a reinstall with admin rights, then your next step is to go to your P3D fonts folder and copy the contents in to your Control Panel fonts, that's fixed many such issues in other products.

So the fonts don't appear in the P3D fonts folder too, where they could be copied from in to Windows? Every other addon I have puts its special fonts in to the P3D fonts folder as well as Windows.

That will not work. The fonts are required to be in the windows font folder.

It seems I'm being misunderstood, perhaps I was unclear. I understand the fonts must be installed into Windows to work, I'm not disputing that.

 

What I'm asking is if the fonts are also in the P3D fonts folder. I do not expect the fonts simply being in P3D to fix the issue. The reason I ask if the fonts are in P3D is because that gives users somewhere to obtain the fonts and install them into Windows; copying a .ttf file from almost anywhere on your local machine and pasting in to Control Panel\Fonts is an easy way to install fonts in to Windows and thus fix the problem of missing fonts.

 

But I realise with the Pro bus being installed outside of P3D's folders, this may not be the case, which is why I was querying.
