I have the Caranado Cessna 182RG, and it ran great in FSX using Win XP. Now Running FSX on Win 7 and it does not show up. Reinstalled many times. How to make it work in Win 7?

(I tried emailing Caranado with this problem and when I submit the question, I get an error my email is invalid because their submission form has a bug that inserts a <x> in the middle of my email!)

Thanks in advance
Jim

I'm taking a stab in the dark, but does it install via auto-installer?  If it did, and you used it and ensure that is was pointed to your FSX location, it's possible that the auto-installer did not install it in the correct directory, especially if you did not install FSX in it's default location (C\programs(X86)\FSX)

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Thanks for the reply Boikat, but yeah, I directed the auto install to my FSX directory, even tried the Sim Objects/Airplanes. However I made a folder and put it in there and it works. Now my problem is there's no thumbnails for it and all my planes on down are shifted! How can I add the thumbs?
