No, it was different. After the usual "checking for update" screen, Content Manager opened automatically and I saw Asobo titel downloading and verifying. Took only some minutes. Never had this before.

Could be a fix for the issues some people were experiencing with some of the premium stuff and the Carenado 182

You may be right, because I have the Carenedo 182 and the update session was pretty short.

After update , no AIRLINERS planes in the menu ?

Are these updates voluntary or imposed?

I wish people would stop posting pointless threads like these. 

Not only is this the second time something like this is posted and turns out to be a false alarm, it is also completely useless information, because any official update will be done automatically anyway whenever one fires up their simulator.

So I don't see the point of a heads up. The program itself will give you one, when it is time.

Quite sure it is not updates. More than likely, Some have lost the content and it is reinstalling it. Happened to myself and many others..

Not here. Just loaded the sim after my "flip flop" refund/rebuy" and it went straight to the main menu screen (I had left all the MS/Asobo files alone where they were, so only the Steam element reinstalled).

No update here, I've got the Premium Deluxe version of MSFS.

I kind of have the converse issue; every single time I load up the game (except maybe once or twice), the "check updates" screen says it needs to download an update, and it downloads exactly 30.41 MiB. Every single time. I've turned in a bug report as I believe there's a glitch somewhere prompting my copy of MSFS2020 to think it needs to download 30.41 MiB over and over again.
