I received the error message documented below. It tells me to search the Console Log. Where do I find that? I searched the menus of all running windows and couldn't find it. Thanks! 73 de AB9NN
How To Find Console Log - DSD+ FastLane - Most Current Version
- Thread starter AB9NN
- Start date
Watch your Command Line screen that fires up DSDPlus. In that screen, as soon as DSDPlus is fired, it'll do a check to see if all appropriate files are available. It will write that information there.
When it starts I see the Event Log but not a Console Log

Wow! I don't see a listing screen like that one, maybe I have it supressed. Here is my start-up lines from my batch file written years ago:
START FMP24 -i3 -o20001 -P0.0 -f853.9625 -_2 -g47
START DSDPlus -r1 -e -T -E -Pwav -i20001 -O NUL -_11
START FMP24 -i3 -o20001 -P0.0 -f853.9625 -_2 -g47
START DSDPlus -r1 -e -T -E -Pwav -i20001 -O NUL -_11
The easy way to do it is to ONLY start up DSDPlus.exe. Forget any batch files. Forget multiple batch files. Just run DSDPlus.exe. The typical Event Log window will open and maybe a Channel Activity Window and one or two other things, but there will always be that command line interface (DOS-like) window that opens with it. And at the top of that screen is where you will see the files that 'passed' and those that failed.
That worked! Here is my output:

Ok, all the files you are missing you probably never use. But they are all in the base/DLLs dowload. Run DSDPlus, and in the menu go to MISC --> Download Newest Base Files
It'll download that file into your DSDPlus folder as DSDPlusBaseFiles.zip . If you are so inclined, unarchive it to a separate folder (perhaps a subfolder in your DSDPlus main folder). You'll be able to grab all teh missing / failed files from there.
If you don't have an Airspy you don't need airspy.dll. If you don't use the specific dongle handled by rtlsdr_FC0012.dll, you don't need that either. So basically, your stuff runs fine without those. But you can easily copy each one of those files into your main DSDPlus folder and make DSDPlus happy.

tldr; download base files; unzip all exe and dll files to DSD+ folder; done
Remove -_11 at the end (which actually should be only -_1. That is what is minimizing the screen
Thanks for the help! I was able to download all the files and now it runs without any errors. I had seen no operational issues before but now the error messages are gone. I appreciate your time and patience! 73 de AB9NN
