    Some people with other computers on the same network were logged into a different Microsoft account at the same time. Log out of any MS accounts on PCs on your network (assuming you have other PCs at the same property.

    Makes sure you have ADMIN privilege's in Windows, and you are signed into the right account when logging in to the same log-in account to download the game.

    For myself, I had to log in to windows 10 on the Flight Sim account I bought it with. Then Download; have it on the PC, then I ran the load (takes ages on a normal gaming rig); then I ran it; later I logged out, and went back and logged into my other (main) Gaming PC with a different log-in to Windows, and started Microsoft Store and Downloaded on the other PC I usually game on.

    Half of the problem has likely been Microsoft employing minority hires, rather than employing staff based on MERIT. 

    Best of.

    I had a new desktop gaming system built just for Microsoft flight Sim. I set my computer high above the requirements that Microsoft asked to run the game and still to no avail... Just a lil upset!

    Actually if Microsoft had more diversity then this wouldn't be a problem, it would just work. Diversity is the engine of are economy. They need to get rid of these old white guys and bring in some diverse talent, then the installer will be fixed for good. 

    So true, call me whatever like all of us who’ve been waiting. MS shoud have fix the issues before lauching the product.. Anyone knows the launch of the new gaming system or any product will have a myriad of problems on the initial release. I knew patches and fixtures would come but they surely did a poor job on this product.
