  1. Flight Simulator 2020 - Physical Version European - disc issue


    Hi,


    I have purchased and installed the disc version of FS2020, including installing the updates.

    I followed the instructions in the manual, including redeeming the activation code which came in the box.


    The problem i have got is that unless I leave a disc in the PC, the sim wont get past the start screen with the message saying "Insert disc".

    I can put the disc in and play it but I dont like leaving a disc in the pc all the time spinning around as it can wear down discs.


    My question is:

    Since I purchased this Physical disc version, is it supposed to force me to keep a disc in the PC or am i missing something?


    I would have thought that once its installed and I used the activation code that i wouldn't of needed a disc in there.


    Any help appreciated

    :)

  2. Microsoft Flight Simulator issue after Windows 10 Upgrade

    Hi Rahul,



    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.



    I suggest you to completely uninstall Microsoft Flight Simulator and check.

    Refer the steps below to uninstall.

    • Press “Windows key + X”, select Control panel.
    • Open programs and features.
    • In the list of installed programs, select Microsoft Flight Simulator, and then click
      Remove.


    Note: If you have earlier versions of Flight Simulator in the list of installed programs, you will have to remove them in addition to Flight Simulator.



    Reinstall the Flight Simulator.



    Please reply to us if the issue still persist.
