fantratic 0 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hello all, as I launch up P3Dv5 I get this error (attached below), and I have tried the following: Attempting to make the files as read-only, which I couldn't do, it just made it back to read-only, Checked to make sure I had the right permissions, screenshot below. I've never had this issue before in v5. Each and every bit of support is helpful. thank you guys so much! resources: Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image.

DaveCT2003 2553 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 That warning usually happens when you have a different path in the Add-ons.cfg file than you actually installed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted September 17, 2020 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted September 17, 2020 Was your P3D running in that moment? If so please try again with having P3D closed (best use the task manager to check that it is really gone) and close all other simulator related applications as well.

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted September 17, 2020 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted September 17, 2020 Well, usually Windows doesn't care a read-only flag on folder level, but is only looking for such flags on file level. The half files check box in your screenshot means, that some files within the folder have a read-only flag set, or the status of the files within the folder can't be determined. Nevertheless you should be able to change the checkbox. As you can't that and P3D also comes up with that error message I assume there are some access privilege problems. Have you installed your P3D under your normal Windows account? If so, have you run the installer as Administrator (right click on setup.exe file, the "run as admin")? What if you run your P3D like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted September 18, 2020 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted September 18, 2020 As you have installed all your Prepared add-ons into your Documents folder, is that by any chance synced with the Microsoft OneDrive cloud? This is know to be the cause of a myriad of problems and the solution would be to completely disconnect your Documents folder from the cloud.

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted September 18, 2020 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted September 18, 2020 There are circumstances where Windows connects your Documents folder with OneDrive without asking you for consent. Best is to check. Open a command prompt window, enter set and press the enter key. Do you the any hint of OneDrive in the text that has been printed into the window?

It’s all about a permission problem on certain systems. But I’m glad you’re back in air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
