FSX Scenery Addition Issue

Hi All,

 

I am having a few issues with FSX as I migrate from FS9! Recently I have been adding new xtreme scenery, but when I start up FSX I get an error message displayed saying

 

"You do not have permission to install new files on this computer. Please have an administrator log on to complete the scenery installation"

 

I am running Windows XP, and this is the sole user account on the pc which has full PC Administrator rights. Once I acknowledge the error message above, FSX loads up as per normal, just without the scenery.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks,

 

Glen

I have Vista so I dont' know about XP.... BUT..... I got the same message before.

Go into Control Panel, then user Accounts, then you need to Turn user account control OFF
