    Run the flight sim plugin installer.
    The plugin installer will check the system for all FS2020, X-Plane, FSX and Prepar3D installations. It shows what simulator software was found and if the plugin(s) is/are installed successfully. In networked set ups the plugin installer must run on the computer where the flight simulator is installed.
