Question about installing Microsoft flight simulator

Davor Vukic · Apr 1, 2023

Hello, I installed Microsoft flight simulator deluxe. After installing all 10 CDs, I entered the 25-digit activation key and the Microsoft store opened. The moment I was about to continue the installation my computer froze and I couldn't complete the plugins and the launch wizard. Please tell me what I can do to complete the installation because I already entered the 25 digit code once and it no longer accepts it. My Microsoft account clearly shows that I ordered the Microsoft flight simulator and that it has been added to my account.

Thank you in advance

:)

HI Gerard,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums! Are you having issues actually playing the game or are you just inquiring about install paths? For installation inquiries I am linking the Flight Simulator Support page concerning "Installation for all versions" All versions - Can I choose or change the installation path? (Install on the D: drive instead of the C: drive for instance) – Microsoft Flight Simulator Support (zendesk.com) . If you have further questions regarding install locations for games and addons I would check out the Flight Simulator forums here Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums .

Sure thing. I appreciate it.

Thank you for your reply. During the installation on the PC, an Official file was created for me, inside which is the OneStore file and inside which there are folders with files copied from 10 CDs when installing the simulator. It didn't pull anything from the MicrosoftStore when it directed me after entering the 25 numeric code. What do I do when I open the Xbox store and find a game? He wouldn't want me to do something wrong. In addition, I want to change the HDD to a larger one. After that, can I reinstall the game or transfer it to my laptop. I'm not really into these waters, I'm new to it.

Thanks for any advice.

Please remove or uninstall the game first completely. You may uninstall it via the PC Settings > Apps > Apps & features > Select the game and uninstall.

Once uninstalled, restart your computer. Once done, open the Xbox app and try installing the game again.
