# FBW Installer | ||
|
||
The FlyByWire Installer is a tool that allows you to install and update the FlyByWire aircraft and its dependencies such as SimBridge. It is a standalone application that is | ||
separate from the aircraft itself. | ||
|
||

|
||
## 3rd Party Aircraft and Tools | ||
|
||
Specific 3rd party aircraft and tools we have collaborated with are also available in the installer. These are not developed by FlyByWire, but we have worked with the | ||
developers in various capacities in the spirit of open source collaboration. You can find a list below: | ||
|
||
| Team | Product | Status | | ||
|:----------------------------------------------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------|:---------------:| | ||

??? bug "Download Issues - FBW Products" | ||
### Download Issues - FBW Products | ||
|
||
^^Description^^ | ||
|
||
In certain situations, your ISP may block our CDN (Content Distribution Network) served by Cloudflare. Cloudflare allows us to save costs when users download our aircraft from our installer to | ||
provide a seamless installation process for a variety of our products. | ||
|
||
Additionally, any disturbance to the stability of your connection may cause any downloads to fail and may need to be retried when you have a more stable connection. | ||
|
||
^^Common Error Codes^^ | ||
|
||
- ECONNRESET | ||
- ETIMEDOUT | ||
- ENOTFOUND | ||
- HTTP 403 | ||
|
||
^^Possible Solution or Workaround^^ | ||
|
||
We recommend one of the following actions: | ||
|
||
1. TEMPORARY Solution: Try a VPN - a great free one that's reliable is [ProtonVPN](https://protonvpn.com/). | ||
- Please do your own due diligence and research when utilizing a VPN, even with our recommended one above. | ||
2. Download a full build from our website [here]() - Please ensure you follow our [manual installation instructions](../fbw-a32nx/installation.md#manual-installation). | ||
3. Contact your ISP to check with them if there are any existing issues utilizing Cloudflare on their network. | ||
|
||
^^Additional Information^^ | ||
|
||
Below is a list of countries that are possibly affected by this issue. Please note that it may not be *every* ISP in the country. | ||
|
||
- Brazil | ||
- China | ||

??? bug "Installer Permission Problems" | ||
### Installer Permission Problems | ||
|
||
^^Description^^ | ||
|
||
During installation of a product a "Windows Permission Error" with the error code EPERM shows up and the installation is aborted. | ||
|
||
^^Root Cause^^ | ||
|
||
Sometimes the permissions of the community folder are set to not allow the current user to install addons in it. | ||
This might be set since the installation of MSFS or MSFS might have changed it at some point. | ||
|
||
^^Possible Solution or Workaround^^ | ||
|
||
One of the following solutions usually lets the desired addon be installed | ||
|
||
* Check the permissions of the community folder and correct them. | ||
* Rename the current community folder, create a new one with the same name and move your installed addons into the new community folder. | ||
* Start the installer with admin permissions. |
