It is the last version of Microsoft Flight Simulator to support Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1. The updated release of FSX includes support for Windows 8.1 and later, along with updated hosting of FSX multiplayer features through Steam.
On December 18, 2014, the FSX: Steam Edition version of the simulator was made available through digital distribution via Steam. On July 9, 2014, Dovetail Games, the developer of Train Simulator, announced that it signed a licensing agreement with Microsoft to continue development on FSX and the production of new content. In December 2012, over six years after its release, the FSX multiplayer matchmaking system over the GameSpy network was discontinued. FSX is the first version in the series to be released on DVD media. It is built on an upgraded graphics rendering engine, showcasing DirectX 10 features in Windows Vista and was marketed by Microsoft as the most important technological milestone in the series at the time. It is the sequel to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and the tenth installment of the Microsoft Flight Simulator series, which was first released in 1982. I would very much like to know if there is a way to get activate.exe to run under Windows 10 so I can avoid mucking around with the registry.Īll this difficulty I'm having activating FSX and FSX Acceleration in Windows 10 is strange as I don't recall having any problems activating either under Windows 7 (which I despised so much so I went back to Windows XP).Microsoft Flight Simulator X (abbreviated as FSX) is a 2006 flight simulation video game originally developed by Aces Game Studio and published by Microsoft Game Studios for Microsoft Windows. I found some info on line about editing the registry that might get activate.exe to run but I'm extremely leery about mucking around with the registry. Reinstalling/repairing FSX might have been what finally caused activiate.exe to finally run but doing the same with FSX Acceleration so far has not worked. Running it in Windows XP compatibility mode and as administrator has so far been unsuccessful as it apparently was with FSX itself (actually, I'm not quite sure how I managed to get activate.exe to run so I could activate FSX!). I then installed FSX Acceleration expecting but so far have been unable to get activate.exe to run so I can enter it's product key. After fiddling around with activate.exe for about 20 minutes the activation window finally popped up and I was able to enter my product key for FSX. Actually, I'm having trouble activating FSX Acceleration in Windows 10.
