I KEEP GETTING 'an error has occurred updating fs2020 exe' after i download like a 12mb file from steam.

Its so slow using MicrosoftStore... omg... i'm thinkin about buy the steam version, would it be faster?

My file is next to nothing before getting the error.

Steam install isn't working, it's live but the .EXE file is missing from the initial install.

Now its downloading a 500mb file. Uninstall and try it again guys.

I'm getting an error at the moment, about lacking an executable.

EDIT: A computer reset seemed to solve the issue. It's working now.

Yeah same here, it downloads a 257kb file then when you press play....it throws an error saying it's missing exe file.

 

 

 

Edit!!! I just refreshed and now it's downloading 500ish MB worth of files.

Guys if you're getting an issue with it launching, go to the gear icon on the right side of the library page and click on it to open "properties". Under the "local files" tab, click "verify integrity of game files" and it will download the proper size (523mb) launcher.

Yeah had to uninstall it a 2nd time but 3rd time was to charm to get the 532mb .exe DL in the Chucky directory. :')

says UPDATE on mine 

New PC Ryzen 9850X3D - 32gb ddr5 6000Mhz - MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk wifi - Gigabyte wind force gaming OC 5090 - 2TB Sabrent NVMe. Old PC - Ryzen 5900x - 32gb 3600Mhz RAM - Asus Strix X570-F Motherboard - ASUS TUF OC RTX 3090 - 1TB Sabrent NVMe. AOC AGON 32" 144Hz - Honeycomb Yoke - Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog. T Flight Rudder Pedals - Trackir.

Download speed is at "I'm heading to work later anyway and it may be done in the evening" levels.

It wants to install packages on my C drive.. but I want to install on a different drive. Does it need a specific file path?
