Hello Tore! Welcome to the new forum.

Sounds like you’ve done some thorough troubleshooting yourself! In order for me to efficiently find a solution, I would greatly appreciate if you could provide the logs from the Simlink application.

If you are using Windows OS, you will be able to find them at `C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Navigraph\Simlink\logs` or by following the below steps:

1. Press ⊞ Win+R
2. Enter `%appdata%/Navigraph/Simlink/logs`
3. Press enter

Please attach the relevant (latest) logs to your next post and I’ll do my best to assist you!

Regards,  
Malte

The log you provided does not contain data for the time that you are mentioning. I am not sure why, but if possible could you please try uploading any other logs created just before the one you already posted?

Thanks for your cooperation!

Please try the following steps:

1. Quit the simulator completely
2. Quit the Simlink application completely
3. Start the simulator ONLY

Please verify that that the Simlink application is then started automatically when the simulator is running.

We are still investigating. Would you be able to share the log you sent earlier publicly so that I can view it? That way we would have a greater chance of figuring out the issue.

Where have you sent them? If possible, please [visit the forum](https://forum.navigraph.com/t/could-not-connect-to-sim/3885/14) and drag-and-drop the files to a new reply. So far, I have not received any logs.

I also requested access to the locked file you sent earlier, perhaps you now get an email where you can allow access?
