    How to reinstall MS FS 2020 after uninstalling


    I redeemed a code to download MS FlightSim 2020. After the install, it was very slow so I uninstalled with the intent of putting on a drive with more free space. Now I can't see how to reinstall. It was a digital download. It shows in my purchase history.
    I thought you could reinstall, but don't know how.

    :)

    MSFS quits after Ready To Fly after Sept 21, 2022 update!

    Same problem here. My configuration is:

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700K 3.60 GHz

    32 GB RAM

    NVIDIA RTX 3080-Ti

    Win 11 Pro Version 22H2 OS build 22621.819

    MS FS 2020 1.27.21

    All system/windows updates applied (as usual)

    NEVER had any problem getting the MAX out of my MS FS 2020 configuration.

    Nov 7, I did the last Win 11 Pro update 22H2. May be this has something to do with it.

    The last couple of days I got CTD's as soon as I hit Ready to Fly in World Map.

    Using standard aircraft etc.

    All Add-on's (Navigraph, Pilot2ATC, FSUIPC, SpadNext) up-to-date and never causing problems.

    The weird thing is that Training Lessons are working perfect, even after hitting the Ready to Fly key.

    Reinstalling MS FS 2020 is definitely not the way to go. We really need to find out what causes the CTD's.

    Otherwise we have no guarantee and we will be playing trial-and-error.

    One hour after I posted this problem, I noticed the following.

    In my MS FS 2020 General Options > Graphics (DLSS setting Quality), I saw that quite a few settings that I had put to ULTRA (because of my RTX 3080-Ti card) were put back to default. I put them back to ULTRA and saved the new settings. Then I quit MS FS2020.

    I did not immediately did not start up FS2020 but first upgraded my GeForce Game Ready driver to 526.86.

    Hereafter I restarted MS FS 2020, tried my default flight with an A320 from EHAM to EHRD (live weather, realtime) and I could not believe my eyes: it just worked as usual. Bite me!

    I really don't know what made it working again. I must be the extreme graphics settings and/or the new GeForce Game Ready Driver.

    Hopefully somebody can comment on this. I sincerely hope that other simmers can profit from this.

    Kind regards,
