Yes where is the simconnect installed by P3D?

this is what I get after installing P3Dv2.5:

microsoft.esp.simconnect: 1.0.20.0, Simconnect.dll: 1.0.195.0

You should have the same version simconnect installed when you installed P3D - can you try installing P3D over?

[Garry]

don't really want to start P3d over because of all addons any other way?

[Steve Waite]

Yes I'm sure you can download the esp simconnect ".msi" installer from Lockheed Martin Prepar3D site.

Although I don't think a P3D reinstall over should affect any addons at all. Depending on your base version, you might need to apply the P3D updates in order after, followed finally by deleting the Shaders folder before starting P3D.

Let me know how it goes.

Cheers will do and report back
