Robert1936 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I posted on the end of the thread started by warmanbrent, but I think this may have gone dormant - and I was on the second page. I have tried removing the FSUIPC4.dll files, but it made no difference. So I've been without FSX for a couple weeks now. I hope someone can help. Here is my original message and event log: Robert I now have this 'crash on launch' problem - which must have started after the last Windows update. I followed the advice above. My event log is below; I don't really understand it (actually, not at all). So if someone could interpret for me I'd be most grateful: Fault bucket 539040964, type 1 Event Name: APPCRASH Response: Not available Cab Id: 0 Problem signature: P1: fsx.exe P2: 10.0.61637.0 P3: 46fadb14 P4: simprop.dll P5: 10.0.61637.0 P6: 46fadb59 P7: c0000005 P8: 00006da7 P9: P10: Attached files: \\?\C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\fsx.CFG.txt \\?\C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\dxdiag.txt \\?\C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\scenery.cfg \\?\C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\fdr.dat \\?\C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\DLL.xml \\?\C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\Temp\WERA311.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml \\?\C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\Temp\WERA331.tmp.xml \\?\C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\Temp\WERA340.tmp.csv \\?\C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\Temp\WERA360.tmp.txt These files may be available here: \\?\C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive\AppCrash_fsx.exe_781c28822ff89480d6af42253053c37e2def23f6_00000000_1c58d0d1-96e6-41ca-b04c-2f61f9a53651 Analysis symbol: Rechecking for solution: 0 Report Id: e228d1ba-f7d0-451d-b3dc-f4370026eba5 Report Status: 268435456 Hashed bucket: 9a08d6b996e9269c83b74278da4fd771 Cab Guid: 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 simprop.dll as the faulting module is pretty serious. You haven't done anything like a "Repair" to your FSX, have you? I'll do a quick Google search and see what comes up! https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/fsx-will-not-load-with-simpropdll-event-error-with/f77565e8-2291-4518-954b-095902cba154#:~:text=Simprop.,can%20come%20up%20in%20FSX.&text=You%20will%20need%20to%20uninstall,Acceleration%2C%20leaving%20FSX%20intact).

JSkorna Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Do a Repair install of FSX Acceleration. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberdog1 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 From what I can see you will need to completely uninstall all FSX (SP1 &2, Acceleration) and reinstall it. AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinger2k2 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Try putting a X in the DirectX 10 preview box on the graphics settings page. Stinger Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert1936 Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Thanks for all the suggestions folks. I uninstalled Acceleration and reinstalled it. After this, FSX launched and then put itself in the taskbar as a black box that wouldn't open. I pressed on and tried again; on this second attempt I was asked to approve the running of a dozen or more modules. But got into FSX sucessfully. On choosing my Navajo I was again asked to approve component modules. Then flew for a bit until I got a message to say that the trial period was up and I would have to register. Closed. Started again: got an error message, code 1-80004005. Clicked Yes for more info but got an unavailable return for the website. But FSX went ahead and launched with no requests on modules this time. Aircraft chosen without any problems, completed a short flight and then FSX stopped with the message that my trial period had expired. I guess this is some sort of progress from complete crash on launch - but obviously not there yet. All further suggestions welcome. I want to keep reinstalling FSX as the very last resort. But maybe I cannot avoid this. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 1. In Windows Vista,and Win 7 click the Start button, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit.exe in the Programs list. User Access Control permission If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow. 2. Expand the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\CONTROL\CLASS\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} 3. After you find the folder, double-click Upperfilters on the right side. 4. Change the value from 0 to PartMgr, and then click OK. (mine said CLEANBOOT on one line and partmgr on the next, just remove one line leaving PartMgr as the value) 5. Close Registry Editor, and then try to use the activation wizard.

Robert1936 Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Yes!

When I got to the line in regedit, it was all lower case, restoring the capitals put it right. Very odd error that. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
