Most likely it's blocked by your AV: https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1489697627

Especially if there's no ACE error message.

I just added a livery from online, and it worked. Strange! I think I must have done something wrong the other day, and not the ACE [P3D4].  Undecided

Hello,

Is there any way to download and install just the ACE? I don't really want to reinstall the aircraft or liveries.

I am running P3D v4.2.

Yes, please try the latest version of ACE:
P3D4 version
FSX/P3D3 version

Must be placed to: ...flightsim root\Captain_Sim\757-III\ace\ folder.

Thank you for the links. I downloaded the P3D v4 ACE file and placed it exactly where you instructed but it still does nothing. I get the initial popup box for "User Account Control" to run it in admin mode and after selecting "Yes" it shuts down.

I'm not sure what's happening. My reason for not wanting to do a reinstall is because I'm afraid ACE might not work anyway and then I won't be able to install any liveries.

Thanks for the info.

But how do you unintall the CS 757 III? I don't see an 'uninstall' option in the CS folder.  And it's not listed in my software removal tool or the windows "uninstall program" option in the control panel.

Sound like your AV did a "good" job on all .exe files.
The csy572_uninstall.exe must be located in P3D4 root.

Thank you. It wasn't on the start menu but I do see it in the "P3D" root directory. I'm assuming it's the"csy572_uninstall.exe".

I'm currently in flight but I will launch the executable after I finish using the sim and see if it removes the CS 757 III. Hopefully it will, then I'll reinstall the aircraft followed by the latest update.

ACE was working and after trying every solution offered it still doesn't start.
Is there a fix for this?

As I said on the first page: Most likely Definitely it's blocked by your AV: https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1489697627

OK. However, the activation process requires an internet connection to activate when installing and I'm not about to turn off anti-virus protection while connected to the internet. I did that a few years ago and had to reformat all of my hard drives. The AV was only off for about a minute . . . literally.

What I don't understand is why there's no problem installing and activating ver 1.0 with hotfixes 1 and 2 without disabling anything. So why is it necessary to disable other software for ver 1.1? And the subsequent update(s)?

I may give it another shot with turning off the Windows defender but I really don't think my AV software is the issue. I've installed other developer addons with no problems at all.

I would find it difficult to believe I'm the only one experiencing this issue, but as I've said I'll give it one more try but won't compromise my system. Worst case is I use version 1.0.
