  1. Flight Simulator on XBOX Game Pass not Installing/Downloading


    Hi,

    This is a new PC, new hardware - clean install of Windows 10, updated Version 20H2

    XBOX Game pass subscription bought, and downloaded the Game Pass app.

    the only game I am trying to install, and play is Flight Simulator however it never runs. I choose the install option.

    Game requires 154GB, I have 400GB Free space, I click okay, to create shortcut on Desktop.

    Then the progress:

    This completes, I click the Play option in green and the game starts to load, and then an error occured - Microsoft doesn't find a solution for the crash.

    Then I am back to the Desktop again.

    I tried installing a different game as a test and it worked fine.

    :)

    Nope,

    Clean installed Windows - First was to download the Xbox Game Pass app, signed in with my account, installed Flight Simulator again, first it showed 152GB to go, then it changed to 1.4GB - completed opened to that loading screen with the town, and crashed back to the desktop with no error.

    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.

    Fly button is grey

    Hello janhrabal1,

    Thank you for contacting the Xbox Support forums. I understand that you are unable to select "fly" while attempting to play Flight Simulator. By chance, is this only happening with one specific aircraft? Have you noticed this error with other aircrafts?

    Users seeing similar errors have had success resolving it by downloading any updates for the game. Please open the Microsoft Store app and search for "Microsoft Flight Simulator" and download any updates that may appear. This is still suggested even if you downloaded the game through Game Pass, it will not install the game a second time.

    If the error persists, you may respond back to this thread but I would also suggest opening a ticket with the Flight Simulator team at Flight Simulator - Submit a Request.

    Thank you,

    -Tali
