dwc3402 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Hi, please can you advise. Most 3rd party addons are installed to the community folder, and when I run EFB database updater, the airports are found and the EFB Client is update with the airport profile etc. However today, i have noticed after buying from the MSFS store within the flight sim and after the install, the airport has gone into the Official folder. For some reason after an MSFS restart and a database rescan, the airport situated in the official folder has not updated the client profile. i.e the parking posistion and when pressing the'i' next to airport the file locations entry has not been updated, with the newly purchased airport listed. pls can you advise many thanks Darren crosby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aivlasoft Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Unfortunately airports which have been purchased through the in-game-marketplace are often encrypted due to copyright reasons. Such airports cannot be read by EFB (see restrictions). I don't know whether this is the case for the airport that you are talking about. Can you provide the ICAO code and the developer?

aivlasoft Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Unfortunately we do not have this airport in our collection. You can check in the installation path (path should be mentioned in the 'i'-window of the airport) whether the file type is '.fsarchive'. If so, the airport data is encrypted as I mentioned above.

aivlasoft Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Sorry, my fault. You're right, the path cannot be indicated because the file isn't recognized. Look for the respective airport folder in '..\official\onestore'. If you have located the folder, look for the folder '..\scenery'. There you should see the airport file having a postfix '.fsarchive'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
