After the latest update (8/29), the weather radar will not work in any of the models, original or exp. pack.
I've tried the zip download from other topics and still no good.

I running FSX Acceleration on Windows 7 Pro 64

In what way has it ceased to function? Are you able to get the test pattern?

Hello , a quick question about the installation , did you select a WX version to install from the sim version list in the dropdown menu ??

Hi CJ & Jonathan;

Yes I did select the FSXA option when installing. Here is a screenshot after running the dependency walker routine.

Hope you can read it and I got the right info you needed. Also, sorry it took so long to reply.
Thanks in advance;

Hey guys;

Quick update, after installing the latest vc runtime libraries (both 64 & x86), the problem seems to have cured itself.
Radar now works in all versions tested so far!

Thanks for the hints.

Yep that screenshot tells me you were missing the VS2015 libraries.

Thanks JB;

I had the 2013 versions of the runtime libraries and it worked up until the latest update.
Once I updated to the 2015 versions problem solved, thanks again.
