    Unable to re-install Flight Simulator 2020


    My motherboard or possibly CPU failed and I had to renew. As I had to do this I upgraded the components .
    The "new" PC was able to boot into Windows 11 (which I had upgraded to some weeks before hardware failure) from the original system disk. All apps and data were available as before - except for Flight Simulator 2020. Start - Flight Simulator fails saying "Can't open ... app not found ... storage device missing or not connected". Looking for it in Programs and features confirms it is not there, nor is it in either Program Files folders on my system drive. The Disk 1 of the program is in the CD drive.
    I tried to re-install from the CD by running Setup.exe but all that happened is that the Microsoft Store was displayed and then nothing.
    I assume that this is all due to the original installation thinking it has been installed on a second machine. Question is how do I reinstall it?

    :)

    Thank you for your suggestions, but my problem is that I can't run installation disk No 1. Running setup.exe gets as far as displaying the Home page of Microsoft Store and goes no further.

    I went through the Language Pack installation just in case (English UK already installed) but Add voices did not offer English (USA) - only Canadian, and three Far East versions!
