The MSFS path is D:\MSFS\Official\OneStore, then I have all of the Asobo aircrafts. The community folder however isn't there. It's under this:

D:\WpSystem\S-1-5-21-3320471684-1917308660-1714662175\AppData\Local\Packages\Mic

rosoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community

Definitely weird! I also have the E:\WpSystem\S-1-5-21-407189478-2283906966-1042017628-1001\AppData\Local\Packages
\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community folder, but it's empty.
The real question here, is why does it install there.
Out of curiosity, where did you buy your copy of MSFS? Through the Microsoft Store, or somewhere else?

It might be worth asking Asobo (https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c/third-party-addon-discussion/216) why this is happening, as they might have a better idea why it's installing there, and not in your D:\MSFS\Community folder, where it should go. Sad

I got it from the 10 disc set.

This is the first time I've encountered a problem. Every other addon works flawlessly.

What selection for "where you purchased MSFS" do you use on the installer before the installation begins? I accidentally used the wrong one on my original install of the 777-200 due to the fact that I thought it was asking where I purchased the add-on itself from, and not where I purchased MSFS from.
For me, it was a simple case of not reading that question properly, because it was the first time an add-on had ask it, and I assumed it was about the add-on itself. I guess I was too eager to get it installed so I could take it for a flight. I'm not sure what the exact result of that was (i.e. it installed but couldn't be seen in the sim, or it didn't install at all).

Were any/all of the others purchased in the Marketplace in MSFS? Or were any/all purchased elsewhere, like the Captain Sim 777-300? I'm asking because the CS 777-200/300 are the only aircraft purchased outside of the MSFS Marketplace, and are installed into my E:\Flight Sims\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Community folder, the other 3 aircraft that I purchased through the MSFS Marketplace appear to be in the E:\Flight Sims\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Official\OneStore folder, as are the default aircraft that come with the MSFS Premium Deluxe edition.

I got all of my other aircraft offsite, not on the official marketplace (goes into community).

I think for the question "where you purchased MSFS" was other. Can't fully remember though.

When you say "goes into community", is that the D:\MSFS\Community folder, or the D:\WpSystems\etc.\Community folder?

I'm just wondering if the answer you gave has caused the problem, although I don't know what the correct answer for where you bought MSFS is.

By "community" I mean D:\WpSystem\etc\Community, not D:\MSFS\Community

Hi, i need some help. I've tried almost everything, but my 777-300 doesn't work properly.
The IRS does not align and the tail is a different color from the rest of the fuselage.
I've tried changing the folder name, shortening the folder name and even installing in a folder outside MSFS. However, in all the message below appears during the installation.
