Now that I have your attention, I installed an addon. A hawaii scenery mesh, its an .exe, I let'er rip. Then when I tried to run the game, guess what , Its says multilpe FSUIPC .DLLs and shuts off, I checked the modules folder, 1 fsuipc, I tried to move it, then FS9 just wouldn't run, then I put it back in, again, Multiple DLL crap , then I descided to uninstall and guess what it cant delete the Default scenery, and I try to delete it "IN USE BY ANOTHER PROGRAM ACCSESS(i can't spell) DENIED"
So I ignore it, and I tried to reinstall but I can't why , because the FS9 EXE is still there!!! I tried to delete, but "ACCSESS DENIED" What should I do??? :-[ :'(  :( >:(

Did you try booting into Safe Mode and deleting from that. That usually gets rid of the "In use by another program" problem. Click "Start-Run and in the window type "msconfig" It will bring up the configuration utility. Now check the box "Diagnostic Startup-load basic devices and services only" then restart the computer and try to delete the files. When you are done all you need to do to boot normally is start the configuration utility again and check "Normal Startup".

Ahhh thanks for the help, your method didn't work the access denied make sure the disc isn't full came up, so I remembered an old trick and simply reverted the system to its last useful date. ;D

Sounds then like somehow a shared resource file was corrupted during your install. Must have been a system file since booting in safe mode only loads the minimum needed files to run Windows.

Glad that a system restore worked. I always create a restore point every time I install something. Don't know how many times this has saved my A$$ both on the job and on my own system.  ;D
