  1. MSFS 2020 stuck forever in loading screen


    I have installed MSFS 2020 in an external hard drive (DMSFS 2020 stuck forever in loading screen :), Packages have downloaded and installed.

    When I start the game via the xbox or shop app, a screen asking packages path appears (always guessing wrong where they are), after indicating the right drive/path, the loading screen resumes.

    The progress bar reaches the end and then it is stuck forever, game never starts. No errors, no messages.

    Status on xbox app is ok.

    Already desinstalled, reinstalled, repaired the game, fixed with gamingrepairtool, redownloaded the entire Packages with no solution to this situation, I'm unable to play the game.

    Dell G15 16GB

    RTX 3050 6GB

    Latest Nvidia Drivers

    Win11Pro 23H2 new install (no extra antivirus or any external programs running)

    gamingrepairtool executed

    MSFS 2020 stuck at "checking for updates" screen

    Hello SerhiiLukoshko,



    Greetings!



    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    It seems that you're experiencing issue downloading updates with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Let's troubleshoot this issue to help resolve or we may point you to the game support team for further assistance. Allow me to do the best I can.

    Here are some steps you can try:

    - Restart Your Device:

    Sometimes a simple restart can resolve issues. Restart your computer and try launching MSFS again.

    - Ensure English (United States) Language Pack:

    Make sure the English (United States) language pack is installed. You can do this by going to Language Settings > Speech > Manage Voice and adding the English (United States) Language Pack.

    - Update Windows:

    Ensure your Windows operating system is up to date. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Check for updates and install any available updates.

    - Check Xbox Live Status:

    Intermittent connectivity issues with Xbox Live can cause problems. You can check the status of Xbox Live here.

    - Verify Game Ownership:

    Ensure that the game's license is linked to the email address and gamertag used to purchase Microsoft Flight Simulator. Also, enable Family Sharing if needed.

    - Repair Microsoft Store and MSFS App:

    I've been having problems like that for the past week. Sometimes it takes forever to find a match and when I finally match up I get stuck on a loading screen.
