Hi Bruno,

Welcome.

Suggest you try a complete reinstall :

- See [FAQ - Simlink Install and Systray](https://forum.navigraph.com/t/faq-simlink-install-and-systray/58)

- Please use specifically _Windows Programs and Features_ to uninstall Simlink:

- 

- If they exist delete directories  
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Navigraph\Simlink and  
c:\Program Files\Navigraph\Simlink.

- Then download and install latest [Simlink](https://navigraph.com/account/downloads/simlink).

- Restart computer

Cheers  
Ian
