Hi folks,  I had this problem once before but don't recall the solution, so please bear with me if I am a little slow. My weapons for fsx will load, that is the weapons panel will display, but I can't arm the weapons.
Is there a simple solution?

Can you give a bit more info on what you mean by "I can't arm the weapons"? Does this mean that you turn the Weapon Control Panel ON but you can't fire any weapons? That you are seeing 0000 for the ammo count?

What is your operating system (WinXP/Vista/Win7/Win8)?

When I try to arm the weapons there is no response in theweapons panel; I other words nothing can be changed .  Itr staysin the off position.

My operating system is windows 7.

A couple of things that could help.

1. Install Weapon for FSX using the "Run as administrator" option - right click on the installer (csw001_1000.exe) and select "Run as administrator" from the list that pops up.
2. Run the Loader using the "Run as administrator" option, then add Weapons to the aircraft of your choosing.
3. You might need to run FSX using the "Run as administrator" as well. This depends on where you installed FSX. Like if you installed FSX in the default location (C:\Program Files (x86)\etc.), which is not recommended because of the strict control the Operating System holds over that location.

Try some, or all, of these should get it working for you.

Thanks Mark;
You had the solution to my problem. I ran the installer and selected the repair install and it fixed it.  Great work !!

I really appreciate youir help. I knew you would have the solution.

Glad you got it working. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] Enjoy. ;D
