craigy 20 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Hi I have recently upgraded my operating system to windows 7 64bit. I have reloaded all the software and the scenery has been activated in AES. However, when I try to run AES config in FS9 and FSX, it doesn't connect to the running version of flights sim and the message instructs to close and open on an AES active airport. EGLL was light green ie active and aircraft is parked at the gate and brakes on, engines off etc. Any suggestions? Rgds Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Developer OPabst 2091 Posted December 1, 2011 Developer Share Posted December 1, 2011 Did you start AESConfig via the Button in AESHelp or direct from the ..\AES Directory? It is important on Win7, that the FS and the AESConfig runs in the same mode (normal or Administrator), otherwise Windows is blocking the communication. When you start AESConfig via AESHelp Button, it will run in Admin-Mode, when the FS is started "Normal", you must start AESCONFIG.EXE direct, so that it runs also in "Normal-Mode".

craigy 20 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Thanks Oliver, I didn't try to start config from the directory as administrator as FS was. All fixed now. Thanks again Rgds Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
