    Flight simulator just won't install from the xbox app


    Every time I try to download Microsoft Flight Simulator it shows me error. I have xbox game pass subscription and I have tried everything and the issue still won't solve. What do I do now?

    Flight Simulator 2020 (Press any key to start)

    I have the xbox game pass and I found that I just had to uninstall and reinstall the xbox app(had already installed the 90 gb the previous night). Then run the app the first time, log in and then close the app. Restart the app and it should detect your
    flight simulator install. Running the flight simulator from the newly installed xbox app seems to get me through the infinite "press a key" loop.

    Why I'm permanetly offline on my Xbox?

    Hello Afruzu how are you?

    My name is Ezequiel I'm an Independent Consultant.

    What appears when you try to connect your internet on your Xbox? Are there any error codes or warnings?

    Yes you can play this game offline, however you need to download content from it so you can play offline.

    1-Open "My Games & Apps" on the Xbox console by choosing the "My Games & Apps" tile on the Xbox Dashboard or by opening the Xbox Guide and choosing the "My Games & Apps" option.
    2-Find Microsoft Flight Simulator in the "Games" section of "My Games & Apps". Note: If you are installing or pre-installing Microsoft Flight Simulator, the game will immediately appear in the "Games" section and you can do this during installation.
    3-Open the Microsoft Flight Simulator "More Options" menu by highlighting Microsoft Flight Simulator under "My Games & Apps" and pressing the "Menu" button on your Xbox controller.
    4-In the Microsoft Flight Simulator "More options" menu, navigate to the "Manage games and add-ons" option and open it.
    5-On the Microsoft Flight Simulator "Manage Games and Add-ons" screen, highlight and open "Microsoft Flight Simulator" on the right side of the screen.
    In the "Microsoft Flight Simulator" menu, navigate to and select the "Manage installation to (storage device)" option.
    7-On the Microsoft Flight Simulator "Manage Installation" screen, navigate to the "World - offline mode" add-on in the Microsoft Flight Simulator base game. Note: Selecting the "World - Offline Mode" add-on will install it, while unchecking it will either uninstall the add-on or prevent it from being installed.
    8-After making the changes, navigate and select the "Save Changes" option on the right side of the screen.
    9-Your Xbox will automatically update the Microsoft Flight Simulator installation in the background.

    Flight Simulator 2020 (Press any key to start)

    Flight Simulator 2020 I open it and at the start it says "Press any key to start" and I press a key and it just flashes and says the same message again and it just keeps happening no matter what key I press or how many times I keep trying.
    The solution is to install Xbox (beta) app from Microsoft Store and then Xbox beta app will download a couple of extra files necessary for running. Then, you need to log in your account (where you bought FS2020 from) and start Microsoft Flight Simulator
    Game from the Xbox Beta app. Voil , it will lead you to the download process of the 91.36 GB extras for full install of the game.
