Problem login in to Flight Simulator Forums

Hello!
Since yesterday night I saw I was logged out of the Flight Simulator Forums and when I tried to log back in, the page went to an infinite loading loop.
After many tries I got a 502 bad gateway error, and one time an "account authorisation error please try again later" message. I never had this problem before and while logged out I can see there is activity on the forum so it's not like the entire forum is down.
I tried deleting cookies several times and restarting the browser but it didn't fix the problem

:)

flight simulator has its own dedicated support as well as its own dedicated Forums. No one here has anything to do it or any contact with them.

More than likely this was just a glitch

Hi Vicente, my name is Oskayra Yes, I can help you with this.

Based on the information you have provided me, it appears that the problem is related to the Microsoft flight simulator installation. It is possible that the simulator installation was corrupted or there is a problem with your console storage.

Here are some steps you can take to fix the problem:

1) Check your console storage. Make sure you have enough free space. As I understand it, Microsoft Flight Simulator requires a minimum of 100 GB of free space.

2) Restart the console. Sometimes, restarting the console can fix minor problems.

3) Reinstall the flight simulator. This may fix problems with the simulator installation.

You can also try to repair the flight simulator. To do this, follow these steps:

Go to your console's game library.
Select "Microsoft Flight Simulator".
Select "Manage".
Select "Repair".
If the flight simulator is repairable, you should be able to download the aircraft without any problems.

I hope this information has been helpful, if your problem persists do not hesitate to contact me and I will do my best to help you.
