Hey Guys,

Does your system meet the sim's requirements? YES
Did you temporarily disable your anti-virus program during the download process? YES
Before installing did you disable UAC. (User Account Control)? YES
Did you install, and are you running the sim as an admin? YES
Before running the sim did you make sure the FSX/P3D directory is off limits to any AV scanning? YES
Does your system have the required distributables? YES
Is your video card DX11 compatible? YES
If applicable, did you disable any FSX to P3D migration tools (like Estonia) before running the sim? YES
Are you using an aircraft other than a Milviz one as your default aircraft? YES
Have you installed in the root sim directory? YES
Do you have the appropriate SimConnect libraries installed? YES

Aircraft: DHC-3 Otter
Sim platform: FSX: Steam Edition
Operating system: Win10
Version: 171229
Unique ticket identifier: 8DD828BB-AC61-1EDF-3C97-2151C2539D42


Gentlemen,
Unable to operate the Otter in FSX/Steam. Believe my trouble is with the DLL.XML. After I install/reinstall I receive the following:


XMLTools 2.01 Installer
=======================
Thu Jun 14 08:05:27 2018


FSX found on this machine!!
Cannot create XMLTools.dll !!
=============================
Reasons:
- XMLTools is already installed and FSX is running
- User has no file write privileges for this file/folder

-End of process-

looks like you're not using the installer with admin privileges...

Negative, FSX and Steam didn`t run during install!

What i did so fare

- Defrag, disk check etc
-Complete new install Steam
-Complete new install FSX-SE
-New DHC installation ( without virus scanning and with admin rights )

I didn`t work at all. I even lost the dll.xml file in the roaming folder.........
