August 17, 20205 yr Tangentially related (didn’t want to make a new thread), when trying to pre-install FS2020 this morning, both from the Xbox PC app, the Microsoft Store, and the Flight Simulator .exe directly, my computer kept telling me something along the lines of being “not ready yet” to install and to check back later. I had to leave for work. Anyone else run into this and know what to do?

August 17, 20205 yr I'm curious to know what they use to check the time zone. Don't think it's the store purchase, as it is only linked to a country yet some countries have different time zones.

August 17, 20205 yr Buying the Xbox Game Pass for $1 solves the issue (yes, this is for ALL versions... just being subscribed to Game Pass is what's needed in addition to changing your region). Edited August 17, 20205 yr by langly

Changing your region setting is hardly hacking your system; some chaps here really know how to overdramatise something. The issue users are getting is that although the download is being permitted, in some instances the licencing server isn't fooled so won't validate the licence until that area's release time, but those people have still gained a head start on the download anyway.

Purchasing the Game Pass for $1 and changing region will work.
August 17, 20205 yr Doesn't apply to me, I bought on Steam 🤦♂️🤣 That worked out well... ckyliu, proud supporter of ViaIntercity.com. i5 12400F, 32GB, RTX4070, more in "About me" on my profile.
