Been getting a few of therse lately. Reinstalled PF3 which seem to resolve the problem, but its back again and I would prefer to find an easier solution.
Attached is some logs which may help.
Tired also a flight plan which worked perfectly yesterday but now gives me the same error message.
Thank you for any help you can give me
Rob
Please recreate the problem then send me all the files from your PF3\Flight\FPP folder
My guess is you may have changed something in your Windows Regional settings
There is a possible issue for those using non UK English Windows Regional Settings which can cause (a) PF3 to supposedly crash and/or (b) being unable to load a flight plan, resulting in an invalid string error in the FPP log.
Required change:
Open 'Windows Settings'
Select 'Time & Language'
Select 'Language' in the left column
Select 'Administrative language settings' from the right-hand column
From the popup display (under 'Language for non-Unicode programs') select 'Change System Locale'
Unselect 'Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support' if selected
Then select 'English UK' for the 'Current System Locale'
Select 'OK' to confirm then exit Windows settings.
You 'may' have to restart Windows at this stage.
Please retry PF3 and let us know how you get on
