Microsoft Flight Simulator X - Need the License Reset tool

Hey guys,

I'm looking for the Software Licensing System Reset Tool made available by Microsoft a little while back for Microsoft Flight Simulator X

I currently need it due to an issue however it's not available as the download link doesn't exist anymore.

The file I am looking for could be found at:

Flight Simulator X: “An error occurred while attempting to activate the product The problem may be due to an incomplete installation of the application” - Microsoft Support

• Or the Direct Link:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/c/d/1cd508f9-7520-4659-a122-a26e8804e884/mskb928080.exe

The file is called mskb928080.exe

Please note: Do not suggest re-installing windows or purchasing the Steam Edition unless you are planning on paying for it.

Thanks,

Nick
