I have a question,
In Orbiitron, I get when I start the program the pop-up that tells me to UP-Date the TLE's With a YES / NO set of buttons.
Now someone a few weeks ago showed me with Teamviewer How to do this manually, and it has worked greatly ever since.
But to do that I have to tell this pop-up "NO" and then do it manually.
Thing is if I say "YES" it messes up the whole program, and takes a while to get the TLE's working correctly again.
Any idea why this should be?

Hi Joe,
I do not exactly know what problems you encounter, but a common pitfall is that Orbitron does not have the correct persmissions to download TLEs to the default folder (program files / orbitron/ TLE). To solve that, run Orbitron as administrator. It should pick up sufficient rights to write to the TLE folder.
Workaround 1: install Orbitron somewhere out of Program Files Workaround 2: put the TLEs somewhere out of the Orbitron TLE folder.
Hope that helps

Hi Wouter, And everyone that has replied directly.
I always run the program as Administrator.
If I did not want to mess it all up, I'd do a screen video capture to show ya all what happens.
But the first time it took me months of fighting this thing and never could get it to work till the one chap did the team viewer thing and fixed it.
Sorry, Just thought it might be a common problem. That others have experienced.
I just keep saying no, then click on the manual way and do it anyway.
