In the Navigraph FAQ: ‘If you are wondering if the Beta Update is installed’, there are 4 possible checks. Nrs. 1, 2 an 4 are o.k. with me, but I cannot find EDDS, LTFM or ZBAD on the Worldmap in the sim. After various remove/installs of Cycle 2102, rev. 3 and deleting the content.xml I still cannot find these airports.
I removed and reinstalled cycle 2102, rev.3 again. And also removed my content.xml (as I did already a few times in the past), but still no success.
I’m not so keen on EDDS, LTFM or ZBAD but I’m not sure that the AIRAC cycle installed properly. Therefore if you have any more suggestions I would be happy.

I followed the steps in your FAQ exactly, i.e. removed cycle 2102 from installer, then deleted the content.xml, opened and closed sim, installed airac cycle again and opened sim.
Please find below a screen shot of the installer and a copy of my content file.
I loaded a flight through Simbrief and the Navigraph chart app from EDDS to LTFM into the simulator. On the next printscreen of the Worldmap you can clearly see that the sim does not identy those two airports. The flight starts and ends somewhere in the sky.
Hi Jan,
thanks again … yep, indeed and this looks really very strange …
One more question:
You have currently the Marketstore sim installed?
Have/had you ever installed any other MSFS version on your system? ie. the Alpha version, a Steam-Version, a Gamepass version?
Additional, I have uploaded a new “content.xml” file for you:
Please close the sim and can you replace your current content.xml file with this xml … after that, check it again. You don´t need to load a flightplan - it´s enough to look for EDDS, ZBAD or LTFM in the dep/arr lines
Make a copy of your content.xml file before please - this “new” file disable all your installed addons … only for testing, if some addon overwrite all the information.
… and you have tested this in the WorldMap, when you enter EDDS manually into the - FROM field … not loading from flightplan. So, you can confirm, that you can´t select any of these airports in the WorldMap in the FROM or TO fields.
Yes I use MSFS AddonsLinker and FSUIPC7 and LINDA. I just tried the sim after the removal of AddonsLinker, but the result is still the same; no EDDS, LTFM or ZBAD.
Hi Jan,
please remove this “AddonLinker” - that´s not official supported by MS/ASOBO and it´s very hard for us also in the support because the files are not there where they should. As I wrote, we have checked all now and all seems ok so far. Never seen this before - not here, nor in the official Flightsim forum but it looks like, that the files will not be loaded correctly from the sim.
Please, don´t use such Linker please - as I wrote, unsupported and as we see now, we don´t know what happened exactly in the background. Sorry.
You’re very clear. But also after the deletion of AddonsLinker there is still no improvement, no EDDS, ZBAD etc. And many 3rd party add-ons have not been approved by Asobo or MS and still work fine. So I can hardly believe that MSFS AddonsLinker, which is used by many people, is the failure.
Anyway, thanks for your time and suggestions. Maybe with one of the future Navigraph updates I will be more successful. If there is a change I will let you know.
