Title: Both 757 and 1011 greyed out Icons
Post by IslandBear on Apr 23rd, 2020 at 11:30am
It all started when I purchased and installed the 1011 two days ago.  I installed with Admin rights and the virus software disabled.  Today when I tried to run the 1011 in P3Dv4.5, I got a virus alert that y112.wxr.dll was a hacker tool.  I told the virus checker that it was not a virus.  The 757 was also affected.
My 757 was working correctly until I installed the 1011.  Now both have the same problem.  I uninstalled both and reinstalled the 757 first.  The icons were greyed out.  I reinstalled the 1011 and its icons were also greyed out.  I uninstalled both again. Is there some other hidden files that must be manually uninstalled to fix the problem with re-install?

You have the 2-D panel transparency turned on (it looks like 50% or more to me).

Menu > Options > Graphics > View and Panel Settings > 2-D panel transparency (%): X (where X = the amount of transparacy). Drag the slider back until X = 0 (zero).

Thank you for answering.  I looked at the options in P3Dv4 and noted  that the transparency is set to zero: 2-D panel transparency (%).  When you have time, please consider any other options for me to try.  I am going to uninstall both aircraft and search for and delete any reference to them and try re-installing.  I will let you know when that is done.

I uninstalled both the 757 and 1011 including searching for any references to both of them, etc.  I did a fresh download of the 757 series.  I then disabled the anti-virus software and did a fresh install.  The problem was no longer apparent.  I am a little concerned about re-installing the 1011.  This is because the problem happened after I installed the 1011.  Any thoughts before I try that again?  Thank you for your time.

You also need to turn off you AV/Windows Defender when downloading the installers.

When I do that, I make sure that only the Captain Sim's Extended Download Service webpage is open in my browser, I exit my email program, and I have nothing accessing the internet while my AV's shields are disabled. I leave it like that until I have installed the CS product.
