aerosoft-vdgs-driver - application is already running. Exiting.

Hello. After a while I came back to MSFS2020 (steam) and after startion the sim I got error of aerosoft-vdgs-driver. I reinstall it in Aerosoft One app and then the sim starts and run normally but after starting I am getting two warning windows "aerosoft-vdgs-driver - application is already running. Exiting.". I just close them and continue to use sim. Reinstalling vdgs via AO does not help.

Hi, this can happen if you have multiple entries for the VDGS driver in your exe.xml file,
 

If you have the MS store version you'll find the xml here:
C:\Users\(YOUR USENAME)\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\exe.xml
 

For Steam it's located here:
C:\Users\(YOUR USENAME)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\exe.xml
 

Open the xml file in a text editor and verify that there's only one entry for the Aerosoft VDGS driver,
