Whenever I fly on VATSIM, I get an error message that reads "Failed to create FSInnChat" anytime someone tries to send me a chat message (and it does not display the message they were trying to send me). Anyone know how this can be fixed?

Start FSInn once by itself from programs instead of from the Flight Sim menu and try it. The next time you start it from the Flight Sim menu it should work. I had the same problem.

To echo what Sid said, Start FSInn UI from the start menu, the click the Chat button. Close all windows and start FSX and you'll be good smile

You only have to do this once, not every time you run the sim.
