Navigraph FMS updater not detecting add-ons

Navigation Data FMS Data Manager

My FMS data manager is not detecting my XPL12 addons on my windows desktop (though it works fine on my mac for some reason). Its not detecting my X-Craft e175, FF777v2, etc.

How do I get it to detect my add-ons?

Thanks

Your X-Plane 12 path should be C:\X-Plane 12\

Hi Ian,

It still doesn’t work unfortunately

after a scan it still doesn’t detect any add-ons.

In FMS Data Manager Settings, check the X-Plane 12 path is the folder containing your X-Plane.exe.

Press Save

  • In Addon Mappings select and Remove any X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 12 Addon entries.

  • Press Save, Scan, then Save. X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 12 Addon entries should be detected.

  • In Addon List, select and Update X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 12 Addon entries.

Cheers

Hey Ian,

After following your steps it still isn’t detecting any Add-ons.
You can see what I did in this video I quickly recorded.

I have also tried moving my FF777v2 into the laminar research folder and that didn’t work either

Thank you

Please move your aircraft folders to c:\X-Plane 12\Aircraft.

Hey Ian,

It still doesn’t work, I moved my airplanes to the “C:\X-Plane 12\Aircraft” folder and it still can’t detect my add-ons.
Is there a log file I can send? What can I do to debug this?

Below is a video of me trying out putting it in the aircraft folder.

Thank you

In Addon Mappings, please Remove X-Plane 12 entry. Press Save. Press Scan. Press Save.

Using image, please upload c:\ProgramData\Navigraph\FMSClient\settings.conf

Hey Ian,

Once again it is not working. I attached a few files that might help debug, as well as a recording of the deleting the X-Plane mapping and re-scanning. Furthermore I tried re-installing it though that doesn’t seem to have worked, though I am new to windows.

Mapping: mapping.index - Google Drive
Config: settings.conf - Google Drive
One log: 20250430-005242.log - Google Drive
Another log: 20250430-005858.log - Google Drive
Deleting XPL12 mapping: https://youtu.be/VW4KDw6CeA0

Thanks Ian

Hmmm, lets try Manual Downloads:

Try downloading and installing X-Plane 12 for starters. You will ned to unzip to c:\X-Plane 12\Custom Data\

One additional question, only as a confirmation:

Is your XP12 installed at C:\X-Plane 12?

Is this correct?

Cheers

That is correct. It had previously installed nav data for X-Plane(I tested it in zibo 737), but X-Plane only and not any of my Add-ons (ie ff777v2). You can see this in some of the recordings I’ve sent.

Hey Ian

This works as a temporary solution, thanks!
Though, where do I put the ff777v2 files/find file locations for each add-on?
