TDSGPSManager not installing Flight Simulator

[dryfly52]

Hi I have ran TDSGPSManager.exe and it has installed the PC Trainer. However when I try to install the Flight Simulator I receive a message to say it has detected a double installation of MSFS both Steam and Microsoft Store. I respond with 'Yes' to accept Microsoft Store installation - which is what I have. The installation of version 1.0.2.7 then starts but then fails to install. See attachment.

I was wanting to unistall TDSGPSmanager and try a fresh install but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that!

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello,

Please run the TDS GPS Manager as an administrator, right click on the exe and select Run As Administrator.

Good luck and please let us know how it goes.

Excellent. That did the trick. The install now runs to completion with a newly created folder tds-gtnxi-gauge (and subfolders) created in the community folder. Collectively they contain the missing files the previous failed install was complaining about.

I haven't been able to prove the install though because MSFS2020 is sat on an update which is taking ages. I'm sure it will be OK though.

Thanks very much for your help.
