Hello,

I ordered and installed the FS 2020 version with the PC code.

After FS 2020 I installed the digital owner add-on (can be only installed afterwards).

But when I start the FS 2020 then a screen is appearing to ask for a disk that I don't have.

What can I do to get it started?

    Hi, I bought a license for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, but once I redeemed the code and installed the game.

    When I start the simulator, I get an "Please insert game disc" error message. How can I fix it? Looking online I saw various solutions but none of them solved, I also saw that digital ownership is missing among the things downloaded in my Microsoft Store.

    Thanks in advance

    (if someone could send me the .iso file I would be able to)

    Workaround: Create an .iso image of DVD 1 but leave the 'data' files out of the image. The size of that .iso will be appr. 4 Mb

    Eject the DVD and put it into the box.  Mount the MFS DISK 1.ISO and start FS2020..... works great!!!

    hi, can you send it to me, please? <removed> _a_ fastmail.com

    Hey, i bought my physical copy couple hours ago.
    I redeemed the code on Microsoft store and started downloading.
    After 1Gb download the game was ready to start.
    I started it, and asked me to insert a disk.
    I dont have any hardware to read the disks.
    Can you please send the .iso to me (<removed> at gmail dot com) or explain how do i work this around?
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Cheers
