    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Content Manager stuck in download of asobo-aircraft-b787


    I bought Flight Sim on Steam, downloaded and when I try to play the game, it takes me to the initial Content Manager Update screen, I click update, and then it flickers between "Please wait..." and "asobo-aircraft-b787-10-0.1.35.fspackage", never making any actual download progress. I have:


    * Uninstalled and reinstalled the game at least a dozen times

    * Run the game as administrator

    * Deleted all old folders created by the content manager

    * Turned of Windows Firewall

    * Switched Xbox accounts

    * Tried downloading both on ethernet and wireless connections

    * Tried installing on multiple drives, all with sufficient disk space

    * Tried every Microsoft installation troubleshooting guide


    Nothing has worked. It's been over a week now and there still doesn't appear to be any work around or fix.


    OS: Windows 10 Education

    Build: 10.0.19041.450

    Processor: Intel i7-10700

    Motherboard: MSI Z490 Gaming Carbon WiFi

    Memory: Gskill Ripjaw 32GB DDR4

    GPU: MSI 980 GTX 2x SLI

  2. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Content Manager stuck in download of asobo-aircraft-b787

    The installation of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 has got to be the worst ever! Did anyone at Microsoft actually put some thought or test this out before release!??

    Its just completely flaky! Crashes, freezes, gets stuck in unending downloads that keep resetting back to restart again...

    Got to the opening screen with the aircraft, and then the Content Manager asking for a folder, and started downloading with the heading"

    "TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR WILL NOW DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL RECOMMENDED CONTENT".

    Then there is a down-load progress bar displayed with a total to the right showing 95.15GiB...downloads start, and then it gets stuck in a repeating restart ....when

    "Downloading asobo-aircraft-b787-10-0.35.fspackage..."

    Gets to download varying amounts of this - from a few percent (as in 1% to 3%, or at times gets to around 27%) and then resets back to 0% and repeats....been doing that for an hour now and the overall download progress is pretty much at zero!

    Given all the pre-user testing etc that went into the actual application itself its really a shame as much thought didnt go into the actual installation testing of the product release!

    Frustrating as anything - any ideas on what the heck is going on would be appreciated.

    I have the same problem.

    I have do several things to fix whole night but finally I can install by doing following method.

    First you need to remove fight simulator completely, and also remove the download folder you specified when it ask to download updates (Its probably in your /AppData/... or other folder you specified)

    Then reboot the system ... (to make sure to leftover flight simulator process that lock the temp files and cause error when reinstall)

    Then install from the store or steam again. AFTER IT COMPLETE INSTALL, DO NOT LAUNCH YET.

    Go to Settings -> Apps, scroll to Microsoft Flight Simulator and move it to the drive that have enough free space.

    After finishes. Try launch the Microsoft Flight Simulator, It should start fresh download again.

    If you stuck in download loop. Quit it, Go the the download folder (It will have folder \Official\OneStore inside).

    Inside \Official\OneStore folder and remove all files start with filename that cause problems (such as asobo-aircraft-b787-10-0.35.*).

    Then reboot system and try launch again.
