    I like you have been waiting since August 2020 for an answer from Microsoft.The installer just won't

    download,even after trying all the advice.I have a 4core up to date pc with a good graphics card.If I can only install the launcher the game would play.😂

    Been trying to install for 3 weeks now. Every time i boot up the launcher, kicks me off to desktop. I see this issue literally every forum on this game. No fix whatsoever... Guess it will be a matter of long waiting before they actually do something about it? But i dont even think they’re doing that

    4 months and counting, cant install.  Received Starlink sunday, direct wired my PC to the router and still no go on loading.  Pathetic.

    We need to get a class action going....

    I agree!

    Hi! 

    I also have download issues with this game. I bought flight sim on release day and managed to download it without problems and played it 20 hours or so and then had a break from it and was waiting for vr release. When the vr update came i tried downloading it but it just stuck on this one file on loop, starting downloading it again and again...sometimes it could download it but then it was stuck on next bigger file. I tried everything i could find on google (netlimiter, rebooting pc/router, changing xbox console companion account, tried to take data limit off the game but wasnt successfull with that). So then i thought that only chance is reinstalling whole game and now i have still the same problem but even bigger files to download. I sent support ticket about this on flight sim helpdesk or whatever its called. I hope they do something about the installer, this is just ridiculous. I dont want refund, i would just want to download the damn game and play it goddammit :D.

    I read that wifi connection isnt recommended on download but i dont have possibility to download on wired, but i think this bug/problem on installation manager has been on flight sim since launch day or after first patch.
