Prepar3D V5.4 won't open

Post by rcobos »

I received a message saying that can't run without a valid scenery.cfg.

I uninstalled all of it and reinstalled it twice and keep showing the same error.

Is there other options?

Be sure you are running P3D as Administrator.
The next time you boot, it should automatically rebuild your scenery.cfg.
If not, uninstall the program and do a fresh clean installation. But, if installed correctly the first time, you should have no need to do a reinstallation.

@tinaford....I did a third clean uninstall, reboot, turn it off again, reboot and reinstalled the full version again and it worked.
