Beyond Frustrated with Railpro

It is my understanding you must always run RP software in Admin mode (at least I always have) because the software writes to the C:Program Files directory. It is a good thing Windows requires authentication before allowing software to write there. Not doing so would present a huge security risk.

I'm not complaining about the security, and I agree its a good thing. However, I think it is foolish for Rind to setup his software to rely on the program files. That's just one more area that can use improvement.
KPack:
Be sure that when you are trying to transfer file to the HC-Sim that you are actually selecting files that are on the computer currently. If you are selecting files from the upper row of buttons then you are downloading them from the Ring server. You must select the lower row of buttons to use files from the computer.
I just turned off all internet connection, wireless and otherwise, and confirmed that I can download local files from RPA on the to HC-Sim without having to be connected to the internet.
If the HC-Sim is showing "waiting for internet", it is really just saying that it's waiting for a response from RPA....nothing to do with the internet in this case. Does RPA show that the HC-Sim is connected when you have both programs opened up? If not, close HC-Sim and open it again and see if that makes a difference.

Opened both in admin mode and transfer between RPA and HC Sim appears to be running fine without internet. I’m happy it’s working but it’s so frustrating too.

Operating Rail Pro and landing rockets... same skill set.
