Okay, it looks like you have a couple of issues here, so please do the following.

1. Find the file named PF3_Register.exe from the main PF3 folder. Right-click on it and select 'Run as Administrator'. Wait 30 seconds then try loading your flight plan again.

2. If you still have the same problem please zip and send me all the files in your PF3\Flight\FPP folder

3. Rebuild the PF3 database, including running MakeRwys (This should eradicate the first error you receive when selecting 'load a flight plan'

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Okay, your flight plan is showing frequencies with a comma seperator rather than the required decimal point. What language settings do you have in Windows? PF3 should handle this but does have problems with some. Please try changing to UK English and see if that helps... I think you'll find it does

I changed the language setting and it worked!

What I not could get working is Taxi guidance. The same for background chatter.
The ATC guidance of PF3 is a bit mysterious for me at present so no clear opinion on that.
Moreover, button control is not an option for me since I'm exclusively flying in VR. And voice control I still have to find out to get it working with PF3.
However, I successfully use Voice Control (Windows native Voice recognition) with a couple of FS2Crew apps.

Thanks very much anyway for your help!

Cheers, Edward
