    After the system upgrade to 21H1, the plug-in cannot be installed. How to solve this problem?Specific can see the picture, after the plug-in installed, the drop-down menu without any games.

    I installed the system several times and uninstalled and reinstalled SimTools several times due to the fact that the plugin was not available.I don't know whether my repeated installation of the system and uninstallation of simtools will have any effect on the future. I checked other people's posts and found that the license has been invalidated due to repeated installation of the system. Is this true?Please help me quickly, I have been tormented by this annoying problem all day, from the morning to the night before going to bed, I wasted the whole day.

    As you can see from my pictures, it doesn't help to install any plugins. The Game Manager drop-down menu doesn't show any games.I tried installing Assettocorsa and Dirtrally2.It doesn't show up in Game Manager either

    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/assetto-corsa-plugin.179/
    Just trying to verify your not using older v1 plugins is all.
    As they will say installed but not show up...

    No, you can reinstall as needed.

    Are you using a licensed and registered version of SimTools, as the demo version of SimTools will only run the Live For Speed plugin, which is included for testing purposes.

    You could try running GameEngine and GameManager as admin and see if it is a permissions issue.

    You could also possibly try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall, then reinstall, to see if either is interfering, as SimTools can trigger a false positive: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/motion-simulation-software-simtools.63/

    Just to rule it out a known issue make sure your computer is set to English Local: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-language-setting-bug-change-to-english-local.233/

    The language setting is English, I forgot to set it yesterday, and the potentiometer will only turn half. I tested it in GameEngine, and the functions are all normal. Even after installing the plugin, the GameManager does not display the game.The firewall is also closed, so I'm going to try running it in admin mode.

    I downgraded the system back to 1909, and it's working now.Seems incompatible with 21H1.Now the problem is solved. Thank you for your help.

    Hi @BoomBoYang,
    Are you using windows defender by chance?
    Just trying to track down the variables to reproduce the problem is all.
    Take care!

    No, it was the version of the system. I switched back to the previous system and everything is fine now.

    I know, but are you using Defender on the system?
    Looks like they updated it in the next release is all.
    Thanks!

    I have indeed shut down the firewall and anti-virus of the system, and I do not quite understand the problem of Defender.Anyway, now the demotion system is working, which makes me very happy.
