---Introduction---

This program is made to check your Community folder for false installed Add-on's and is primarly for useres who have installed many Add-on's or are installing many Add-on's and dont want to check every folder for correct folder structure.

--For what is it looking?--

It is looking for the Layout.json in every Add-on because MSFS 2020 only loads Add-on's if it goes into a Add-on folder and finds these files if the Add-on's are in a folder which is deeper in the folder tree MSFS will not load it (these folder structures can hapen throug wrong unpacking or the Add-on creater uploaded the file in this wrong format).

 

---How to use---

To use this small program you first need Python!

Then you can open your Terminal (just enter "cmd" in your Windows search bar) and now there should be something like that "C:\Users\YourUserName> ". First thing to do you'll need to enter "cd " and than paste in the path where this program lies, for example:

"C:\Users\YourUserName>cd Downloads"

the next line should look like that "C:\Users\YourUserName\Downloads> " or "C:\Users\YourUserName\your path to this file> "

Now we can start:

Enter: "python communitychecker.py [path to your Community floder]"

my example: 

"python communitychecker.py D:\MFS2020\Community"

and just press enter and wait until there is written Finished, now you can see which folders are wrongly installed!
