Flightsim X won’t load

Hi Douglas Addington.

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

In your description, after resetting your computer and deleting all of your files, when you open Flightsim X on your hard drive again, you find that it does not load successfully.

Since this is a problem that occurred after you reset your computer and the system components are all up to date and problem free, this problem is not system related.

This could be some problem with your hard disk, please refer to the following steps to check your hard disk.



Check the hard disk

Search for cmd and run it in administrator mode

Type chkdsk c: /f

Wait for the check to complete and see if it checks and fixes the problem.



Disclaimer: Running chkdsk checks the file system and file system metadata of a volume for logical errors and physical errors. To avoid causing unnecessary trouble, please follow the above steps step by step and do not interrupt or cancel during the run, and make a backup of important data.



You can also uninstall Flightsim X and then download and install it on your computer again to see if it starts properly after that.



If none of the above steps helped you, please post your question in the forum of flightsimulator via the link below, where there will be more professional people to provide you with more targeted help in this area.

Yes. And it downloaded but only the COD for series x. Only one game shows in my games. The red mask season 4. And it won’t load. Takes me to store and then says I own it.

It won’t load any games and it won’t give me an option to install new games either

Won’t load. Times out when trying that.
