Eric Parkinson 1472171 Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:25 PM Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:25 PM Hi, After the recent update, X-Pilot will not launch when clicked. I have to uninstall, re-install, and launch in order to make it work. After I am done with my flight(s) and quit X-Plane, the next time I try to launch X-Pilot, nothing happens and I need to uninstall/reinstall again. Anyone else with this issue or with suggestions on how to fix this? I have tried the usual uninstall with the X-Pilot uninstaller, uninstall via remove programs in Windows 10, and restarts. Thanks.

Justin Shannon Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:34 PM Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:34 PM Do you have an antivirus that might be blocking xPilot? Controller (C3), Los Angeles ARTCC Developer: xPilot, vATIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Parkinson 1472171 Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:52 PM Author Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:52 PM I checked BullGuard after re-installing and it does not seem indicate placing XPilot in quarantine or any other notification [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ociated with it.

Justin Shannon Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:57 PM Posted January 10, 2020 at 05:57 PM Do you have Windows defender disabled? Have you tried whitelisting xPilot in your antivirus?

Eric Parkinson 1472171 Posted January 10, 2020 at 06:29 PM Author Posted January 10, 2020 at 06:29 PM Defender is running but Bullguard takes over the Firewall duties and it has XPilot on permitted list. Firewall and antivirus have been unchanged since the updates. Voice comms have been fine on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Shannon Posted January 10, 2020 at 07:57 PM Posted January 10, 2020 at 07:57 PM Hmmm... I’m honestly not sure what would be causing this. It definitely sounds like something on your machine is blocking access to xPilot.

Eric Parkinson 1472171 Posted January 10, 2020 at 08:02 PM Author Posted January 10, 2020 at 08:02 PM Thanks for the attempts anyway...appreciated. It's odd that it works at clean install and then ceases to launch after first close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
