    What do do with the updates for Microsoft Flight Sim if there is no enough space


    Well I downloaded Microsoft flight sim and everything was going great until the new mandatory update. So when I was about to update just like usual ( I have 55gb in my storage now.), watching all YouTube videos, they recommended that I downloaded the game to another file so I thought that it would be good that my updates are downloaded into another file. Hence I changed my file location. And now, every time I open Microsoft flight sim, it tells me to update and when I try to find a file it says that there is no space on that disk. Pls help by telling me what to do and also telling me what file I can put the updates to to relocate the updates to the original file

    :)

    I have MSFS installed and it is on version 1.18.14. When I try to start it up it tells me there is a mandatory update. The store says I'm up to date?? What do I do??

    What fixed it was installing Xbox on the PC. Not Xbox game bar but just plain Xbox. It is like the Microsoft Store but for games mostly. It recognized that I needed to update Microsoft Flight Sim but would not do it. I clicked on the update for Microsoft Flight Sim and nothing would happen. But then I went back to Microsoft Store and it recognized I needed to update MSFS and did it. Problem solved.

    Flight sim cloud gaming installs update on hard drive?

    Yeah i know, i was wondering why i do need to update flight sim on cloud when i want to have the updates. The game still updates "something/somewhere (in the cloud seems strange to me). Flight sim is the only game i have this weird thing with cloud gaming. All the other games always latest version, and there is never a question to update something, but its always the same with flight sim.

    CH Products Flight Sim Yoke Set up

    How do i set up CH Products Flight Sim Yoke for Microsoft Flight Sim 2020?
    I had to map each axis and button manually. Equipment must be too old for them to do it for us.

    My MSFS2020 is downloaded to a hard drive, and a new update was set to download to the folder from when it was in my PC, and I’m thinking i should download it onto the drives official folder, should I

    Hello Blastedoregano, my name is Vanessa, and I would be happy to help.

    Yes, it is possible that your hard drive is out of space. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 updates can be quite large, so if you have little space on your hard drive, it is possible that the update will not be able to download correctly.

    In general, it is recommended to download Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 updates to the official units folder. This folder is located on the C: drive of the operating system and has enough space to store updates.

    If you decide to download the update to the hard drive, it is important to check that there is enough available space. You can do this by opening File Explorer and right-clicking on the hard drive. Then, select "Properties" and check the amount of available space.

    If the hard drive has little space, you can free up space by deleting files you don't use. You can also move some files to an external hard drive or a cloud storage drive.

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help.

    Best regards,
    Vanessa.
