    MSFS 2020 will not start.

    The version of the game on the discs is 3 years old, and no longer functions

    It has been replaced by the 40th Anniversary Edition, which all existing users have been upgraded to free

    You will have to download the game regardless due to all the changes in 3 years

    Here is the current version, you can also download it from the Xbox App or Windows store

    Hi Brian,

    I'm Anirban and I'll be happy to help you.

    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps like restarting the device and wait for at least 5mins to see if it works?

    Best regards

    Microsoft flight simulator 2020 crashes while loading

    When i start MSFS 2020 the blue bar appears, when it's half loaded, the game closes suddenly and goes to desktop no fault code.

    Latest mandatory update for flight simulator 2020 not showing up or downloading in microsoft store.

    I can also confirm this worked for me on PC. I downloaded the XBOX app via the store.

    Then, in store, clicked the three dots.

    Then "downloads and updates" and sure enough there was an update for MSFS 2020 1.19.9.0. This was 507.0MB.

    I then started MSFS 2020 which went to its own install manager and showed me the "Standard Content" mandatory update which was 108.12MB. The total download, however, was 3.19GB.

    I then downloaded all available updates in content manager.

    Once all this was complete I quit to desktop and restarted MSFS 2020 without issue.

    I think it's VERY strange to need to install the XBOX app for any updates to show in the PC's Microsoft store!!
