  1. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 not installing when selecting drive to install om


    I have been trying to get Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 to install by selecting one of the my other hard drives that has free space, when I select the new drive and hit install nothing happens. I have tried resetting Windows Store, running Windows Store troubleshooter, making sure all the permissions are active and I am still unable to install the game. I have been through most of the posts on here to try and fix the problem, but so far none of them have helped. Is there anything I'm missing?

    :)

  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.
