Hi…, Welcome. Does this occur for the web based [Navigraph Charts](https://charts.navigraph.com/flights) ? I suggest you try a complete Simlink install : - See [FAQ - Simlink Install and Systray](https://forum.navigraph.com/t/faq-simlink-install-and-systray/58) - Please use the _Windows Programs and Features_ to uninstall Simlink: [![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/navigraph1/original/2X/c/cf5a0a5b707969d9ca0b36eaa5e903813457a2fa.png)](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/navigraph1/original/2X/c/cf5a0a5b707969d9ca0b36eaa5e903813457a2fa.png "image") [image1743×391 28.9 KB](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/navigraph1/original/2X/c/cf5a0a5b707969d9ca0b36eaa5e903813457a2fa.png "image") - If they exist, delete directories c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Navigraph\Simlink and c:\Program Files\Navigraph\Simlink. - Then, download and install the latest Simlink. - Restart computer Also, please post screenshots of the steps you are taking to turn off Moving Map together with any error messages using [Guide to posting Screenshots](https://forum.navigraph.com/t/posting-guide-uploading-screenshots-or-images/116/2) Cheers Ian ---

I’m having the exact same problem and have done all the steps described. It’s somewhat intermittent. Yesterday it worked just fine but not this morning. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/navigraph1/original/3X/8/8/88ca7fc65fbc58cd391e88c6cb3b0fa6fdd0cb3e.jpeg) [simlink\_2025-12-14.dlog](https://forum.navigraph.com/uploads/short-url/8JTqnvspLVHrqT8YMxzMT50GT8g.dlog) (707.5 KB) ---

Hello, In the previous version of Simlink, it started broadcasting data on Airport selection in the MSFS main menu; however, that data was not valid. In the new version of Simlink, it detects valid data once your aircraft is loaded and the flight is ready to start. Now you can see the moving map as the flight starts. Please feel free to let us know if you still have the issue. Thank you! **Best Regards,** **Vishal Ahir** **Navigraph** ---
