Yeah, I've been thinking of doing that so I might as well just get it done with.

It wasn't able to fix the issue. I do have the ED version, not Steam. DCS thinks that I have the module even though I don't because I deleted the file but it thinks that it is still there.

No, I'm not able to fly the aircraft nor does it appear in the "Installed" tab of the module manager. I probably did something wrong during the repair.

I repaired DCS and still don't get the module available in the module manager. I either did the repair wrong or it just didn't work. If I can't figure it out I think I'll just have to do a full redownload of DCS World.

I have been looking on how to open a windows command prompt in the c:/program files/eagle dynamics/dcs world/bin/ folder for about the past 30 minutes, but haven't been able to figure it out haha. I'm not the best with computers, sorry.

A month back or so I had the F/A-18C trial, and for some reason, I decided that I wanted to delete it. I am used to X-Plane and in X-Plane you delete aircraft and things through the actual files. I also didn't know that you could just delete things through the module manager in DCS. Also, I don't know if this is relevant but I have DCS 2.8 stable version. So when I was going to delete the aircraft I deleted the file in File Explorer. Earlier today I bought the F/A-18C for DCS World and it still hasn't appeared in the module manager in-game. I feel that I just wasted my money from my own stupidity and am not sure if there's any way to recover the module. Thanks. TL;DR: I deleted the F/A-18C trial through the actual file in File Explorer, and I also just bought the F/A-18C and it isn't appearing in the module manager.
