Lawgiver 1 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Hello Everyone, After a clean install of FSX, I was re-installing my aircraft. After the Cat X was installed, I received the following error: "ERROR with edit FSCatagories.xml..the Mission is not available." I was using the 1.20 full installer version. Was there ever a solution for this error?? I have found 2 threads regarding this error, however they are both locked and unresolved. I really would like to have the missions if possible. I do still have the previous versions with their updates from Aerosoft if the 1.20 installer isn't working correctly. Thankfully the installer apparently made a backup of the xml file before the Cat was installed. I was surprised to see it in the same folder. If need be, I can uninstall the Cat and restore the previous xml file. Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawgiver 1 Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 Hi Shaun, I did run the installer as administrator. No issues with UAC either. I have it disabled. Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawgiver 1 Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 Hi Shaun, No, no mission packs. Just aircraft payware/freeware, scenery GEX, Orbx, Aerosoft, FSDT, and a few others but no missions either payware or freeware.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Hello Rob, Let me check my FSCatagories.xml and see what entry there is meant to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawgiver 1 Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 Hi Shaun, It has been 5 days. Just wondering if you have any further suggestions for this error?? I still haven't done anything with the AC. According to one of the other threads, if I uninstall the Cat, the xml file will be ruined. But, I do have a backup file if thats what I need to do. Thanks.
