Question AS16 FSX-SE Windows 11 Pro

[Kalorien]

Hi there,
I use AS16 on a client PC for FSX-SE version 7968 on a Windows 11 Pro. It works, but sometimes the Active Sky Window freezes. The weather seems to be working but you can´t minimize, close or select anything like Home, Wx Control, Map, Conditions and so on. It stays on the desktop. The only way to get it back, is to do it the hard way by using the task manager, end the program, and start it again.
Does anybody have the same phenomena?

Have not had any reports of this. At least for many many years now.

Check your Firewall/AV software is not blocking or scanning anything.

Everything is off, as you can see. It runs as admin. Installation folder is outside of the c: drive. Sorry, I don´t know much about the Windows FW settings, but I don´t like to disable it. As far as I know, the FW will ask if it is needed. Well, in the FW options is an option for that to ask.

You need to add exclusions.
You cannot just turn the firewall off.

If this does not help then please open a support ticket.

Ok, I did a new exclusion. I will have to test it. Might take some time. But I will give a note about this anyway. Thx.
