Want to play on PC not XBOX

Featured Replies

I had pre-purchased the MSFS2020 Premier edition.  Now that it is released (and already installed on my PC), when I open the app it opens in "XBOX" mode.  I no longer own XBOX...want to play MSFS on my PC where it is installed.  How do I get rid of the XBOX stuff...and play on my PC?  Thank you.

Xbox Game Studios is just branding. It's a full PC release. Not even on the Xbox consoles yet.

I guess they are going to keep doing this and getting accounts banned until Mommy gets home from work and tells 'em to stop using her PC.

I was part of the r/flightsim thread(s) where this idea was floated. It’s not really that clever.

Dudes who troll tend to not be clever. Especially ones that jump from forum to forum posting other trolls' stuff they saw on the previous forum.

OK Back to basics. Does the sim boot up on your PC? Can you go fly planes? If yes to both then you are playing it on a PC... sorted! 🍻
