This error is caused by an invalid SimConnect client installation, and Active Sky cannot find the proper SimConnect module(s) in order to communicate with FSX properly. Here are the solutions:
Reinstalling the FSX update(s) (recommended procedure) The first step in attempting to repair your SimConnect installation is to uninstall/reinstall FSX’s SP1 or SP2 update. Removal is done in add/remove programs, making sure to check the "Show updates" box to see the SP1, SP2 or Acceleration/SP2 update entry (if XP) or choosing the "View installed updates" option in (Vista/7). The majority of potential installation issues will be solved with this method. Manual deletion and reinstallation (if recommended reinstall procedure does not fix the problem) Warning! Modifying your GAC or Windows SxS files can cause improper configuration of the SimConnect modules, and is not recommended for most users. Complete re-installation of FSX may be required. If further problems are experienced, the actual SimConnect installation may be damaged/corrupt and the normal reinstall procedure may not work to correct the situation. If the described reinstall does not work, please follow these instructions to force a manual reinstallation: If you have FSX Deluxe:
If you do not have FSX Deluxe:
