Try running ppregfix.reg located in the same folder as PlanePlotter.exe.

Well, if you take a backup of a working PP installation and also backup the appropriate Registry key, all you need to do is reinstall PP, copy back your charts, maps outlines etc. etc. and run the registry file and it will work just as before - certainly doesn't "suck".

The registry key you need is [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\COAA\PlanePlotter] locate it using Regedit and then right click and select Export. Give the file a name - PP_Reg_Backup perhaps and save it somewhere safe. After re-installing and copying back your stuff, double click on the .reg file and it'll do the hard work for you.

The only caveat is you must use exactly the same drive and folder structure for the re-install as you did before you backed up the registry key.

Viel Glück,

Tim
