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)

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.

I followed the link for help but it comes back as no such web page.
If anyone can help me reactivate my addons I'd be grateful!
Other than that it's a brilliant program

you can change the path to your usercfg file in the settings
%appdata%/rwy29/packagemanager/settings.json
by changing the path in the UserOptCfgLocation parameter. (make sure to use double backslash in there!)
of course this only works if the 'InstalledPackagesPath' setting in the UserCfg.opt file points to the correct location!

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

Yes and no. If I do so, they appear in the "unknown" category instead of livery. Am I missing something?

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.

seems that 384MB is still to big to unpack. the screen of unpacking stays forever, circle is still turning. but nothing happens for ages.
