We need a few things so we can help you.

1. The name of the addon you are having problems with

2. A copy of the orbiter.log file post crash.

The Orbiter.log file can be found in your main Orbiter folder, usually just after the Orbiter. exe and the orbiter.ico files, and before the orbiter_ng.exe file.

If your pc, as it looks, is setup for hiding file extensions (which is not good), you only see a bunch of files, each called "orbiter", but after that name there's something like ".exe", ".cfg", ".log". The problem is that you can't see which is which.

The file we need is of the "generic" plain text type (.log).

yes I noticed that .ok so how do I correct this is this in my system cfg folder?

i found the folder -and corrected the hidden ext name.

First of all, patience.

Looking at your orbiter.log file I see this:

>>> ERROR: No vessel class configuration file found for:
---------------------------------------------------------------
>>> ERROR: r7_SZ\TMA_fairing
>>> [Vessel::OpenConfigFile | .\Vessel.cpp | 252]
---------------------------------------------------------------
>>> TERMINATING <<<

This means that you haven't installed a Soyuz addon correctly, so when orbiter files it cannot file the files it needs to use and crashes.

...so a solution may be to find the your addon's manual or readme, and then see if it mentions any other prerequisite addons that need to be installed too.
