Windows 10: Problems connecting to https://www.flightsimulator.com/

hi to anyone who looks at this or answers it. So lately I've been looking at signing up for the Microsoft flight simulators alpha test so i could get my hand on and try the game before i think about purchasing it. when i go to this link:https://www.flightsimulator.com/ i get a message that says: upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: connection failure. i have no idea why this has started to happen and what it means but any help would be grateful. thanks.

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
