Hi,
I have been struggling with getting MSFS 2020 to install!
Pre-Purchased the Premium Deluxe Edition and i have a Windows 10 PC - and so far all attempts have failed at some point over the last 12 hours of trying.
First question - what is the order of installation that should be performed from the Microsoft Store across the items that are listed there in two parts:
2.1 "Microsoft Flight Simulator"
2.2 "Flight Simulator Deluxe Upgrade"
2.3 "Flight Simulator Premium Deluxe Upgrade"
2.4 "Digital Ownership"
Is there a particular order or hierarchy that these need to be installed?
i.e. do each of the sub-parts of point 2 above need to be installed individually and prior to the first part (i.e. point 1), or does installing the first (Managed) install all the others?
So far the downloads have been erratic, and i installed the first part and then launched it, it started up and then froze, and then crashed on restart. When trying to install the sub-parts, the computer just site there with "working" displayed on the sub-part line.
This is really frustrating!
Anyone able to provide some guidance or point to a set of instructions on how to get MSFS2020 installed?
thanks!

Requested a refund and of course they said No because it is over 14 days....what a croc. Even with all the patches ... no success.
Told MS that this refusal of a refund for a program which does not work for some of us is a HUGE public relations mistake.
I went to X-Plane and it worked right after installation....beautiful.
I have the very last version:
Edition: Windows 10 Pro
Version: 20H2
OS build: 19042.575
Window Feature ExperiencePack 120.2212.31.0
Still it does not work.
At least it wirked. I did exact same thing and it didnt install!!
im finished with MS
Check your version of Windows 10 (the build number). I believe MS says you need 1904 which is what I had but I couldn’t install MSFS. I had to download and install the MS Windows Upgrade Assistant. The “Assistant” allows you to install the latest build version.
The minimum requirement for Windows 10 is 1909.
