Unable to launch Microsoft Flight Simulator from MS Store / Xbox app

Same problem. Flight Simulator won't launch from MS Store and reports this error. Also on Dev build 20190. How will we know when Microsoft resolves this issue?

1) I downloaded the game through Microsoft Store

2) Launch the game with same problem (press any key to start) agian & again

3) then close the game!

4) download Xbox (beta) from Microsoft Store

5) launch Xbox (beta)

6) launch Flight Simulator from Xbox (beta)

7) problem sloved with (press any key to start)

now looks like updating or something?

Still unable to play!

In my case, I uninstalled Xbox Game pass and Flight Simulator, install both again and run

After 5 hours (91GB download) everything was ok!

You just go to Microsoft Flight Simulator in the start menu like anything else

You can also launch it from theXbox app

1) I downloaded the game through Microsoft Store

2) Launch the game with same problem (press any key to start) agian & again

3) then close the game!

4) download Xbox (beta) from Microsoft Store

5) launch Xbox (beta)

Same method worked for me. It's like it didn't recognize that I was signed in to Xbox Game Pass until I uninstalled everything, reinstalled Xbox Game Pass app, reinstalled FS 2020, then finally the "Press Any Key" problem was gone. At this point I will just
have to wait until tomorrow for my first flight because the rest of this download will take several hours.

Hi Josef;

Please see my previous posts about how things went with Flight Simulator from the MS App store.

I'll look at the link.

THanks,
