  1. Microsoft Flight Simulator stuck on Checking for updates.


    Bought the game on early april and this error has become more and more often to the point that i cant play it anymore, i've tried deleting every addon and repairing the game but nothing seems to work. I'm honestly tired of wasting my time trying to find a fix every time I want to play because i have limited time due to work. And even more being an addon creator its frustrating having to wait at least 20 minutes before it decides to load! IF it even loads.

    Any help would be really appreciated.

    :)

    Microsoft Flight Simulator stuck on Please Wait...

    https://steamah.com/microsoft-flight-simulator-fix-for-stuck-on-please-wait-3-68gib-remaining/

    For me this worked, it was pretty much because the launcher wasn't able to decompress some files correctly. navigate
    your way to your roaming file (%appdata%), find your way to Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Official\Steam, delete all files that are not folders (for me I had like 6 packages at the bottom of my listing that were files not folders), then rerun the launcher
    and it should correctly install them.

    Hope this helps! Good luck

    Flight Simulator 2020 Stuck on Set Your Experience

    If you’re stuck on the Flight Simulator 2020 checking for updates loading screen, these are the fixes that players have reported:

    • Restart the game
    • Run as administrator
      • To do this, type ‘Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020’ in the Windows search bar, right-click, then run as administrator
    • Download latest Windows updates
    • Download latest Nvidia driver updates
    • Disable Windows firewall (I finally get off that screen when I performed this step).
    None of these resolves the issue - I have done it all.
