Package Manager for MSFS (v1.2.8)
Easy & Fast
Package Manager for Microsoft Flight Simulator enables users to easily and quickly mange their Community content.
Drag and drop your downloaded zip, rar and 7z files and add them to your Flight Simulator with the click of a button.
Package Manager also allows the user to manage the installed community packages.
By providing an overview of all the installed packages and the option to remove a package.
- INSTALL DIRECTLY AFTER DOWNLOADING YOUR FILE
Just download a file directly from your favorite flightsim file share site, drop it into the Package Manager and hit the install button. - FREE
Package Manager is free to download and free to use, forever! - NO CONFIGURATION REQUIRED!
Just install and the Package Manager will automatically locate your MSFS installation and your Community Folder. If it is unable to find it you will be prompted to locate your UserCfg.opt file only once. - SUPPORTS MULTIPLE FILE TYPES
Package Manager supports .ZIP .RAR and .7z. No extra sofware required! - MANAGE YOUR ADDONS
The Manage tab allows you to, enable/disable addons, Edit their manifest files (to correct their category,...) and much more! It's however not meant to be a sorting/categorisation/grouping app. There are already fine enough applications out there that do that.
Requires Windows 10 or 11, .NET 4.8 and a valid installation of Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS)
For more info, help and updates check https://www.rwy29.be/
In case you get a warning this might be a malicious program. It's because the code is not signed a contains File operations code (which the app needs to be able to manage your community folder!) But still downloading,installing and using the application is at your own risk. I can only guarantee that the code was virus free at the time I uploaded it. What happens afterwards, I have no control over.

Is there a way to reassign an installed addon to a different category? For example my installed liveries are all over the place, meaning in every category. I would like to sort them by hand into the livery category.

You can!
Open the Package Manager, go to the Manage tab
Click on the package you want to change the category of,click on the left most icon of the icons on the right hand side (the page icon).
A new window will open.
To edit the category click the EDIT button in the top right corner of the window.
Next select the preferred type under Type.
Click Save.
I hope that's what you were looking for

it seems that the tool sometime has problems to unpack addons which have a bigger filesize. for example photogrammetry mods have sometimes more than 1GB... applications does not freeze, but it endlessly displays that it is unpacking - but with no end. can you please fix that? thanks

It's on my to do list.
Problem is the many compressed file formats i want to support.

Love this add-on. So simple and easy to use. Drag and drop your addons onto the install screen and its done. Categorizes your 3rd party add-ons into 5 easy to follow sub menus. A tick in the box and your add-on is good to go, uncheck it and it doesnt load into MSFS.

I have a bonkers cpu that's too powerful for my computer which I've never seen go to even 40% and todAY, WHILE USING THIS TO INSTALL A .7Z, (oops caps) My cpu is now 100%

I'm aware of this issue. Sadly it appears most 7Z files cause such issues at the moment. This 'll be resolved in the next version

when installing a new addon, is this package manager checking if the addon is already installed, and if yes, deleting the old version, before installing the new one? a lot of developers are recommending to delete the old mod completely, before installing a new revision.

Sadly during my testing it turned out a lot of new versions have changes that make it very difficult if not impossible to link it to an older version. But the app has a quick and easy delete feature. So the user has full control

looks like a great tool. just starting with it. to where is this manager moving the files when i untick them?
2 years ago
it moves them to a subfolder of you community folder called 'pacakgemanagerdisabled'. this effectively hides it from Msfs

ModManFX was okay, it was a good piece of software but the UI was clunky at best. This feels like a product thats unified with the simulators UI and keeps things simple and fast. drop in install is a nice addon and it doesn't lag up on load or adding a mod.
