Hello,

I am excited about the new flight simulator! I just purchased the Premium Deluxe edition from the Microsoft Website and seem to have installed the standard edition. I can see this in the Microsoft Store App. However, the Deluxe and Premium Deluxe edition have an exclamation point by them, and it sais that this will not work on your device for both the Deluxe and Premium Deluxe edition. I am wondering if I will still be able to access all the features of the Premium Deluxe and Deluxe edition because I paid for them. It seems like the two upgrade versions have not been installed, only the standard edition. It also sais the same thing for a lot of my other apps, but I don't use them. Thank you!

I read in a forum many if not all who purchased the premium are seeing the same thing.  Me included.  It was written that as the regular version hasn't really been released, yet, or installed on your computer, the other two upgrades will not work until it is installed.  Guess I'll see if he was right when it is released for install/use.

    It still appeared that it wouldn't work on my device today, according to my screen. However, I decided to launch the game and see if it would download the rest of my package, as a sort of update. BINGO !

    After checking for update, it downloaded all the additional content by itself (around 4 Go of content).

    Go and launch your game and see if it works for you.

    Any news for you, guys ?

    I,m getting same issue. Hoping it works by 12am. I also read we were supposed to be able to at least download it before launch. But that didn't happen either.
