    I have installed SODE 1.6.2 and when I launch the Platform Manager it comes up blank (image below). When I looked in the SODE log folder all thats in there is the PLTMGR_DETECTION document and it looks like this:

    Trying to detect ‘FSX’
    Hive: HKLM
    Registry Path 32: SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0
    Registry Path 64: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0
    Key name: SetupPath
    Trying Path 32…
    ‘SetupPath’ key found in 32-Bit registry -> Install Path = ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX’
    FSX:SE Co-Existence Key exists! Value = 0
    >>> CAUTION: Single FSX-SE Installation detected, skipping FSX detection!

    Trying to detect ‘FSX-SE’

    Trying to detect ‘P3Dv4’
    Hive: HKLM
    Registry Path 32: SOFTWARE\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4
    Registry Path 64: SOFTWARE\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4
    Key name: SetupPath
    >>> ERROR: Unable to find ‘SetupPath’ key in Registry!
    >>> ERROR: void OpenKey

    — END —

    However when I open the Registry location for FSX [Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\microsoft games\flight simulator\10.0] it shows the proper setup path (image below)

    Hi,

    Maybe this thread can help? -> https://sode.12bpilot.ch/?topic=sode-registration-error-fsx-steam&paged=2#post-4043

    I think creating and setting the co-existence key to 1 will have SODE look for fsx-se.cfg and the FSX-SE subfolders.
