After a year of FSX w/flyinside suddenly not working (and FSX Steam not booting at all) I finally had time to try to troubleshoot it. I'd remove FSX steam edition reinstall,etc to no avail.
Yesterday, I found a YT vid of someone that discovered the non-booting of FSX SE was actually due to a vid card (GTX960) driver update and the manufacturer dropping support for DX2 Oculus. So, I just needed to revert to an older version of the driver. Did and it fixed the issue with not being able to load FSX SE. So, part of the issue was resolved leaving juse Flyinside to reinstall.
ISSUE: Flyinside seems to install but no icon appears nor is the exe icon in the system menu. When I check the directory, there's no Flyinside files in he FSX Se folder (program files/…).
* I've uninstalled Flyinside (and per an old recommendation I found here) I deleted the files in the user profie.
* tried to reinstall and it seems to install but, as with before, no shortcut on the desktop and no files in the system menu. Rechecking the directories - nada
* Then the FSX SE fails to start.
* Uninstall Flyinside ... FSX SE is able to start again.
I've tried several versions of flyinside ...
-original preview for OVR 0700
-flyinside pro for OVR 0.7 and 0.8
-flyinside pro 1.3 for OVR 0700
-flyinside pro 1.4 for OVR 0700
any suggested courses of action?
