Run it and tell it where FSX is located and it should fix any missing or incorrect registry entries.
See if that helps.
When all else fails, follow DaveG's suggestions. It worked straight off. Huge thanks to you all. What prize do you want for getting it right, DaveG? :welldone: :welldone: :welldone:

The floodlights on the CT railings have somehow flipped back to their original polygon orientation, and lost their textures, but right now, "quite frankly my dears, I don't give a damn."
OK, the surrounds still have to be sorted, but it's finally made it to the sea:

It's a pity you don't have the Gen-X Western Isles scenery Miike. You are missing the runways and the road.

Here is Barra using default buildings and custom runway markers:

Hi George,
This is still early days. As I mentioned, the surrounds still need sorting. I'm hoping to make runways and car park with ADE, whilst any items that I can't place with ADE will come from Instant Scenery.
I was just so relieved that the frustration was over, that I wanted to share it unfinished.
All the same, your suggestion to get all the surrounds from payware, then insert my bits is tempting.

I suppose you could use SbuilderX to redefine the coast so that the tide is out.

I guess you don't take on a location like Barra without realising the amount of work involved. Here are a couple more shots of Barra with GenX(4) Western Isles as the base and with Scotflight removed so it's default like George's shot. IF you fly in that area a lot, it would be worth getting GenX vol4 and adding your own bits to it ;)

I hope you haven't used the FSX default position. It is way out:
