Run as administrator is the fix.  When I ran it for the first time, I did select run as administrator and thought it would remember it for the next time.  I just selected run as adminsistrator this morning and see my add-ins again.  Is there a way to make sure it remembers to always run PureSim as adminstrator?

Yes, you can set it as a property on the shortcut, see my link above.

I did the same thing. I assumed, wrongly it seems, that if I told it to run as administrator once then it would do it every time. This is the first time I've dealt with Vista and it drives me nuts sometimes. However, I changed the shortcut properties and all of sudden I see the add-ins for my saved association. Such a simple fix.

I'm not running Vista, so I'm not sure how to get PS to recognize the add-ins. I have a total of 27 add-ins available thru the drop-down menu on the Team Management screen. I have 31 files in my VB6 folder.

Before converting to 1.75 I was able to use the Expanded Team Results any time before the last day of the regular season. After that, they would change to zeroes. Now, there is literally nothing in there; it just sends me to a blank screen.

How do I get back what I had before? I'm fresh out of breadcrumbs[:'(]

1.75 changed nothing with add-ins so maybe it has something to do with the way the add-ins load. Many of the add-ins were written by third parties. Did you to install to a folder besides the default? Just guessing.

All the add-ins are in the same VB6 folder. The Expanded Team Results shortcut shows on my screen but leads to nothing. There's a long list (27) of add-ins on the drop-in menu, but this isn't one of them. Strange.

Is this the right location? :

Here's something you can do, though it's not fun (I've done it when I've had add-in problems). Move all of your add-ins to a backup folder. Then start moving them back one at a time. Luckily, Puresim will recognize the add-ins you've just put in if you go out of the add-in screen and then back in. It may not solve any thing but at least you will be able to pin point the ones not loading and maybe figure out why.

Strangely enough, I went into some other associations, updated them to 1.75, and they worked fine. I only had one other assn where the Expanded Team Results did not work. I'd say 6 of 8 are working. The other two........?

Even stranger now. I started a new season and everything is working fine. I guess all's well that ends well.

Any Vista veterans know how to get around that Allow/Cancel option each time I try to start the game? I have it set to run as Admins, but it still prompts me for that.
