Microsoft Flight Simulator slow download speed

hello, thanks for the reply.

none of these tips worked.

I can download on all platforms with full speed, including the Microsoft store and Xbox app. But the flight simulator is slow.

Hello Gavin,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

There could be several reasons why the download progress of Microsoft Flight Simulator is fluctuating. One possible reason is that the download speed may be affected by your internet connection. Another possible reason is that there may be interruptions or errors during the download process.



To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:



1. Check your internet connection and make sure it is stable and fast enough to support the download.



2. Restart the download process and see if the issue persists.



3. Clear your browser cache and cookies, then restart the download.



4. Disable any antivirus or firewall software that may be interfering with the download.
