MAIW Global Libraries fails to unpack

Post by barticus300 »

Can someone please help I have used Matrix in the past with no issues recently I uninstalled it. I have just re installed it from scratch on Prepar3d v4 only to find the Global Libraries will download but it wont unpack for some reason ?? I get the error message "Something went wrong while installing MAIW Global Libraries. Please try again or contact us on our forums"
I have tried numerous time but it just wont unpack.

Hello Barticus,

I have been having this same issue for a few since late 2019. I have not been abler to use MATRIX since I bought my new PC. I thought I new how to give permissions, but have still not been able to get it to work! Could you give me a quick rundown?

There are several ways, but the easiest thing you can try is right-clicking the Matrix shortcut and then "Run as administrator".
