Can't download Microsoft flight sim 2020

Thanks for your info.I'm not sure where to go from here? I might have to get a digital version though STEAM;But wait to the price comes down.I have all the other flight Sims except X plane.They all work with windows 10 with patches.What I think is Microsoft are over the top in trying to stop people making free copies.

Ive reached out to a number of media outlets, not expecting much but thought why not give it a try? The developers / Microsoft are clearly are not listening to thousands of customers so maybe a little bad press will make them address it.

The microsoft team are not very happy with you ,because you have hit a raw nerve.I thought I'd let you know what has happened.I'm not one for thowing the towel in.Their are better things to worry about?I BOUGHT 10 DISC OFF AMAZON.

Could not install some of them .They kept throwing.up errors.Sent them back.Reistalled the new ones perfect.Still no launcher possible.Went to reinstall these new disk again.This time failed more errors.What don't make sense is how do you get 2 different results from the same disc? I am 63 and been using Pcs since1995.I have a reasonable up to date pc.Tried contacting STEAM,MAY NOT LAUNCH THROUGH THEM. ASBO,no answer.Aerosoft pass the buck back to microsoft.One can't ring microsoft ,they don't answer any more.You have every right to be annoyed;Iv'e wasted days on this ****,Cheaper to fly in real life.Thank you for your info.Geoff Hart,at NORFOLK ENGLAND.

I will never buy another Microsoft video game again. This is pathetic.

ALL of these instances above are a WARNING.

NONE of the helpful fixes will actually work in certain hardware/network instances, I know because I have been unable to fly since Beta. I have even re-formatted my PC after setting ALL Xbox and Windows Store settings to default and still unable to simply download it. Meanwhile Outer Worlds plays great if desired. Any drive I choose. Freshly formatted or not, SSD or not.

STAY AWAY from this suspect product. If you HAD the misfortune to buy it back in July, I feel your pain. And for future reference don't count on PayPal to enforce any degree of merchantability for it, they won't, I have tried.

MS/Asobo- Pilots already call you a joke, the complete inability to even SHIP an article to people who might be regarded as "core" is short sided and an obvious grab. Anyone with a copy of sketchup and a basic knowledge of it is cranking out scenery for people who want a fancier 3d slideshow and let's just leave it at that as I'm being gracious.

I'm not going to go all fanboi and non-constructive here but you HAVE shot yourself in the foot, and multiple times I see. I can tell you I already HAVE voted with my wallet at a third party developer's site, and I don't expect I'm alone. They develop products (airports) for your sim as well and act as a gateway much like your own marketplace but they don't play favorites, ALL have access to some form of add on there.

I like that. Nice and inclusive, rather than take it or leave it, ha ha. Oops you can't, too bad.

120.00 bux for buying up Bethsoft, Ka-Ching! No refunds, chump.

That is PRECISELY how it feels, Microsoft. And effectively what you've DONE, even to those of us who were actually trying to help you by Beta'ing your junk and buying day one copies to support you. Asobo has betrayed us ALL, for crappy net code, a thing you guys USED to be noted for. Oh, and a submerged London which I heard you've corrected as well as the Queen's digs. Too bad my own home state looks more like France in the type of buildings they chose (wrong) to populate the auto gen with, a thing they never once took note of during beta as it was "low/no priority" when I COULD get the thing to work.

The selfsame developer I mentioned above sells a product that combines Orthoscenery and custom autogen and landclass all in one convenient package that you guys should have used as the model with Bing, instead of this Voodoo solution you DO have. It's a Frankensteinian Pig with lipstick FAR worse than it's competitors' some of whom are based on it's Predecessor's code, ALL of whom got better response out of me as far as add-ons. I have a total of FOUR for this one, in excess of it's being the Deluxe model. ALL of them are loyalty jobs for owning the thing in your Competitor's product/s.

I have a 2Tb NVME drive ENTIRELY full of that developer's product for just ONE of your competitors. I have spent THOUSANDS there over the years, for just about every sim we could name, starting with yours as represented by FSX and the ESP codebase.

I have three sets of goggles for the gogglevision with an Nvidia TI class card to run them on and have since Beta. The original box you cleared me to run it on was an HP Omen pre-build with an 8700k and a 1080ti, but I have subsequently built my own from scratch with a 2080ti and a 9900K. Obviously we didn't run gogglevision in Beta, but my system WAS so equipped, to include the latest SteamVR beta for Windows Mixed as I was primarily on my Odyssey+ back then. A fact that was hysterically acknowledged by my acceptance into the Beta for VR! Which I COULD NOT RUN.

God save us all from Microsoft, and what they have done to Flight Simulator. It is a beautiful use of a game controller, but that is where I'm afraid it ends. Since I can do much the same thing for free sans the pretty airplane online and the more SIM focused titles I have with their appropriate addons simply make you irrelevant. Not being able to simply download the thing is a joke and I hope people who have this problem continue to post here, as you have offered us NO practical or effective solution other than the one by your employee, in the first thread. As that does NOT work for us who are so afflicted and we are constantly pointed HERE in a **** I hope this thread grows.

I will never buy another Microsoft video game again. This is pathetic.
