Well, now I've done it.

Ever since installing some of the Milviz/Blackird freebies, something has changed with my sim. Whenever I take a flight the sim pauses and minimizes to the taskbar as if something is running in the background. I have to call up the Task Manager and direct FSX to maximize and then un-pause to continue my flight. It only happens once on each flight regardless of aircraft. I've never had this issue with any of my prior Milviz installs so I'm totally baffled as to what changed or got overwritten.

Anyone encounter this? Any suggestions? Should I do a total reinstall of the freebie aircraft?

I should mention that a similar issue surfaced in the past and there are several posts in the forum on the subject, but for the life of me I cannot remember the solution.

Thanks in advance.
