Make sure the AIRAC is being installed into FSX/P3D\Captain_Sim\navigation folder.
If you get them from Navigraph, I thought they would install into the correct folder once you select the sim you were installing them into.

Not sure what's going on, but I don't have a Prepar3D v5\Captain_Sim\757-III\Navdata folder.
Firstly, in your case the cycle info/data should be in the Prepar3D v5\Captain_Sim\navigation folder, not the Prepar3D v5\Captain_Sim\757-III\navigation folder
Secondly, the file names/types look wrong to me as well. As far as I know, the names and types should be:

Airports.db
Airways.db
cycle_info.txt
Fixes.db
IAPs.db
Navaids.db
Runways.db
SIDs.db
STARs.db

as seen in my attached image.
