    MSFS will NOT launch


    When I try to launch Microsoft Flight Simulator, it takes me immediately to the Microsoft store. GAMING SERVICES is prominently displayed at the top with the message "This product is installed".No amount of trying to update gaming services seems to satisfy the system. MSFS WILL NOT LAUNCH.How do I fix this so I can continue to enjoy the product I paid you for??

    :)

    Can't launch MSFS 2020

    I bought MSFS 2020 on Steam, PC version, but got an error saying my Microsoft Live login info was incorrect. I double checked the info and tried again. This time, the error message said that there’s a problem with my account and to open the browser to my
    account page but no further instructions. I logged in to my Live page and tried launching it again but got the same “problem with my account” error. Finally, I uninstalled the game and got a refund from Steam. If I buy the DVD boxed game, will I encounter
    the same problem. Why do I have to log in to XBOX Live to play a game that I’ve purchased?

    I already paid for and downloaded MSFS 2020, and played it. Now after doing the Windows 2004 update MSFS 2020 will not start, just goes to screen

    MSFS 2020

    Hi,

    I purchased MSFS 2020 pro when it was released and installed it on my computer - all fine except performance was bad. So I got a new computer, uninstalled MSFS from my old computer (services/apps) and reinstalled it on my new computer. Although the performance
    was now great I only seem to have the basic version (only two aircraft). What do I have to do to get the original pro version installed?

    Many thanks
