I recently got a new system Microsoft Windows 7, My Windows XP crashed.
Problem is no matter how I add area the addon scenery never up shows in FS9 it always indicate default scenery. I never had this problem with Windows XP, Can anyoned tell me what am I doing wrong? frown

If your running the scenery through an installer run it as Admin. Also check in your scenery Library that the scenery is there if not add it

Run everything as ADMIN .... that is right click and select Run as Administrator

Remember, just because you signed in as a user with ADMIN rights doesn't mean you running programs with ADMIN rights.

Okay,thanks for the all the great advice and I'll try what you indicated, I seem to have taken it for granted that the procedure might have been similar to windows XP. cool

Best regards
