Flight Simulator Install on Different Computer

Drewmama08 · Aug 19, 2020

Been trying all day to install Flight SImulator 2020 on a laptop and it says my machine doesn't meet minimum requirements. I suspect it's my graphic card (Nvidia GeForce 940MX). Will I be able to uninstall this from the laptop and install on a new machine
(assuming the new machine meets system requirements) without problems? I'm afraid it will tell me that the redemption code has already been used. I downloaded the game from the Microsoft store.

Hello, Francisco. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

How is your setup to install MS Flight Simulator? I mean, if you own a flight institution (or aeronautical engineering institution) with computers, you can install and license MS Flight Simulator on these computers and let the students use these computers on your education institution.

Now if you want to license MS Flight Simulator to be used on your students home computer (which will change like every year or so), it'll be a different situation.

I think the best option for you is to contact Microsoft about Flight Simulator by submitting a support ticket here (it's the official MS Flight Simulator Support channel):

Hi,

As long as you keep the same account your purchased games and apps from the Windows store go with you. So if you buy a more capable machine you can install it on there.

Purchases are linked to your account, not your device. You can throw away any redeemed codes.

Yes, you can install Flight Simulator 2020 on more than one computer.

Microsoft Flight isn't Microsoft Flight Simulator. Different game and it's not as demanding as your think. Most PCs/Laptops should be able to run it.

Microsoft Flight is the latest installment to the flight genre though.

Thank you so much for answering my question.

Unfortunately, the standard licensing terms in Spain do not allow a computer based license. Is it allowed in the US?

I will contact fs zendesk although I don’t know whether educational licensing is handled by MS Edu. Any experience on this?
