When I start up the game it tells me to press any button to start. I press a button and then it tells me to insert the disk and press continue. I don't have a disk because I purchased the premium Deluxe Edition online it's bought-and-paid-for it says the game is installed but everytime I press continue it just pops up again please insert disc.

Just set up my joystick in controls. Validated and saved everything, checked all buttons and column registered after saving. Doesn't work in program. Tried restarting, no luck. I flew for fifteen years, never had these problems! Perhaps I'm just thick as a brick.

How do I establish which version I have.
Raymond, as you would expect, it's less than obvious. I think the correct method is to:
1/ open the Microsoft Store app on your Windows 10 computer
2/ On the Store app's home page you should see a down arrow immediately to the left of the three dots in the top right-hand corner of the screen. When you click on this down arrow it takes you to your Downloads and Updates page.
3/ Under the "Recent Activity" heading you should find Microsoft Flight Simulator listed with the version number in the 3rd column. Mine says: 1.11.6.0
If Microsoft Flight Simulator doesn't appear under "Recent activity" click on the "Get updates" button in the top right-hand corner of the screen. If an update for the launcher is available, it will appear here.
Official instructions are at: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017133940-How-to-maintain-and-update-Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-
Good luck.
