1) install using "Run as administrator". Right click on installer and select "Run as administrator" from the list that pops up.
2) Run the "Loader" using the "Run as administrator". Right click on the Weapon "Loader" and select "Run as administrator" from the list that pops up.
3) If FSX is installed in C:\Program Files etc..., then you might also need to run FSX using the Run as administrator". Right click on fsx.exe and select "Run as administrator" from the list that pops up.

Hopefully, the following image will help show you how to do that (see 1 on the image).

So that it always runs as an administrator, you need to right click on the item (Loader or fsx.exe), select Properties > Compatibility > Privilege Level > Checkmark the box beside "Run this program as an administrator" (see 2 on the image).

Each time you "get a new link" it is accessible to you for 72 hours. After that, you can't access it any more. All you are really doing is giving yourself access to download the product again.
Sometimes the installers get corrupted during downloading. It has happened to me, only once, and I know it has happened to others as well. So although the links are the same and the file is the same, have you actually reinstalled Weapon for FSX using one of the newly downloaded files? As well as using the method I explain in my previous post?

The next thing to try is to do a complete uninstall of Weapon for FSX, including the removal of the entry in the Windows Registry (KB #685). Then when you reinstall it, you have to reactivate it as well. Check-in to Your Profile > Product > Customer Support > Search KB or Submit New Ticket and do a search on #685 (without the #).
