So, did anybody have a smooth installation?

Took 3 hours to download and install from 06:25 - 09:20 (GMT+2). Very smooth and constant download at 125 Mbs. Now to setup before I can start flying. Very happy so far.

Mine was pretty uneventful! Did the cheat (I was very original and used Australia instead of Kiribati!) and the download was pretty smooth, installed fine, flew Dublin to Galway then did a circuit of the entire island of Kauai which brought me nicely up to midnight where I could then download the Premium Deluxe pack and then I flew the 787 around SFO. I was honestly shocked with how good everything looked, and honestly my jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw how amazingly smooth the performance was, no stutters, buttery smooth and not a single CTD!!

Download (CET 00:00) was done in approx 3 hours. During first run I experienced a hang when the options screen was going to load, but after a windows restart everything loads fine. Exploring the new sim after work.

very slow here in the US Central.  Had to restart the entire download all over again.  it did not save the progress.  Premium Deluxe in the MS store along with the 50 other FS titles makes it impossible to know which to manage.  I started last night around 2300CDT and now still only getting 15mb down on my 100mb connection.   Not good for the KC area, I'm afraid.

Oddly the download size changed from 90gb to 76 also.  Maybe it did save.

The download took a few hours but went smoothly.

this might be a coincidence but i had the flash screen with blue bar doing nothing

restarted 4 times exact same thing

switch defender off and it worked downloading now

For me the blue frozen bar seemed to be due to Windows firewall...

Started at midnight here in Aus.  4Hrs later all done no drama.

Started working after I left clicked, but now stuck on 49% with fs base 0.1.

So, instead of pressing a Key, just use left mouse Burton? Is that right?

I had a very smooth experience - started at 00.01 (Central European Time), went to bed, woke up at 5.45 to find it had installed, had a odd hang on the options page which resolved by me pressing back or ESC. After then everything checked out. Did a smashing  flight around my hometown in Cheshire with Live AI and weather in the Robin with v smooth performance, then dug out my old TrackIR and then went to work...

I downloaded 95.15gb to external hard drive, could you suggest how to make it to my desktop D drive as I couldn't find any installer in the downloaded files of 95.15gb.  Thanks in advance

I set my download locations and hit start then the screen went black. Music is still playing and in Device Manager my CPU usage is at ~50% and varying disk and & download 200-500 Mbps....just let it keep going or restart?
