    When I try to launch the game nothing happens, but my HDD light is flashing madly. Still is and has been for past 20 minutes+


    The only difference from the last time I played is that I have just upgraded my computer from Intel i7-6700K to AMD 3900X



    The task manager is busy with CPU/Memory and Disk for a program called "wsappx"; I believe this is somehting to do with Microsoft.



    Is it trying to sort itself out or do I need to reinstall the game?



    If its reinstall, how do I uninstall the game; I see no option to uninstall anywhere.



    Tnx.

    :)

  2. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

    Hi. I have two questions:

    1) I have been using Flight Simulator since its release on Aug 18. Today, I stated the Simulator, it loaded OK, I created a free flight, clicked on Fly, when I tried to use the joystick and keyboard to start and use the simulator, they both did not work
    and would not control anything...they were unresponsive. Checked the Controllers section in the Simulator set up section and the keyboard and Thrustmaster M1600 Joystick were listed and the keyboard and joystick action assignments were still there and responded
    when I clicked a joystick button and keyboard key....the assignment box in the Controller section responded when I pressed a key or button. Rebooted the computer with no change. Do you have any suggestions?

    2) How do I uninstall and reinstall MSFS 2020 in the event that is the only way to fix this problem? Please provide instructions and where to download the MSFS 2020 Premium Deluxe Edition from.

    Thank you...Malcolm

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 - PC System Requirements

    Dear Microsoft,

    I am very excited about purchasing the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 in the future, but first, I need to know some further details about the PC hardware the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 needs for the best smooth performance.

    As far as I know, the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 will rely mostly on the CPU and VGA, and will use lots of CPU power and lots of graphics card power

    How many CPU cores will be used by the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020?

    How much megahertz does each CPU core needs to have for the best performance?

    Will a GeForce RTX 2070 series graphics card with 8GB Graphics Card Memory be more than enough for the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, to play the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 on graphics settings on maximum without loosing performance?

    If I have the right PC hardware, would it be possible to play the new Microsoft Flight

    Simulator 2020 with the Graphics on maximum without loosing performance?



    Kind Regards

    Tharanga
