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.

    Hi there I'm having the exact same problem, bought the premium deluxe edition with digital copy. Installs in seconds which should take hours with the size of the game. Game starts then always says insert discs ????

    I've tried to uninstall and reinstall this same issues?

    Are you still have same issues this morning

    Hi Dontask,

    Is your PC connected to the Internet and the drive has 150 GB space?

    says

    To install Microsoft Flight Simulator to a different folder, click "Browse" and select a new destination folder if you have created one already or create a new folder before saving that new path.

    *The drive selected for installation must have at least 150 GB of free space available*

    Hi Sumit,

    I am experiencing the same issue as Dontask. I get the 'Press any key to start' screen, which I do and the next message to pop up is 'please insert the Microsoft flight simulator game disc'. You can either hit continue, which brings up the same box over and over or quit installation.
