Dis you try this trick, RustyFlyer mentioned?

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

I didn't, certainly going to try it next time.

I left my computer running overnight, this morning it had finished the download.

Well out of desperation I tried this and yes, it does seem to have finally stopped the patcher dropping the big files.

Error updating in the Microsoft store or MSFS2020

Error Code: 0x80070490

Tried everything on the internet..
Nothing fixed it.

Anyone ?

Do u have a crash to Atlanta or near? 

[Elvensmith 165]

I spoke too soon, it's choked again this time on fs-base-cgl 0.1.30 something or other.

What a crock of absolute... tripe.

Asobo and MS need to pull their socks up and get a better patching process than this especially as it sounds from those who have successfully downloaded and installed the patch is going to need another patch to fix everything it broke. Amateurs.

Does anyone else have any of the following issues:

1. The logbook congratulating you on a completed flight once you turn off the engines at your selected gate.

2. Not being able to select clearance delivery at the start of an IFR flight?

3. ATC issuing a go-around command when the runway is clear?

Installation of the update successfully. Since then, I have a CTD as soon as I use the ATC, the sim is unusable... ☹️
Does anyone have that problem too

I hope that the next update will be not in 1 week or more?

I just completed the 160nm leg of the Patagonia bush trip and it didn't acknowledge the arrival either. Not really a bush pilot so doing this leg was actually a bit boring. Now i have to do it again ?? 😤

Did you install liveries?

No, no livery. I just installed a mod that changes the aircraft lights (Uwa light mod) to make taxiing easier. I removed it and now the sim does not even starts 😞

I tried to check the file integrity with the Steam client and you know what it did? It removed all the packages. So now I am reinstalling them all, 106 GB to download. I am very happy...

The only performance tweak I am running is the one called “2080Ti”, though I am thinking of experimenting with the “3090” mod in the future.

Cheaper to prevaricate and wait another couple of years for the 4080 mod 

[altenae 171]

Anyone else lost there A320N liveries after the patch ?
It worked perfectly before after I have placed the livery folder in the community folder.

4080 mod is slow, bro - you don't want that. You'll get better frames if you go with the 4090 (or 5090) tweaks +/- the IBM Q System 3 mod.

Downloaded it earlier. 15GB on a single threaded download client (why?!?) took longer than it ought to have done but it installed fine. Took the C152 for a quick test flight out of Liverpool and that was fine too.

No mods except the C152 one posted on this forum so maybe it's mods that are breaking the update for everyone else?

- Pilot camera position can now be saved or reset.  

 

Anyone know how to do this? I had a look earlier but can't see any option to Save the position.

netsh interface tcp show global

Not sure why yours is taking so long. Mine took 32 minutes from beginning of download to end of installation of the 15.69 GB update. I had seen that someone else recommended enabling Window Auto-tuning if it is not already, by running this from the *Administrator level* command prompt:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

Mine was already enabled (can be verified with the Admin. lvl. command prompt: netsh interface tcp show global), and both my download and installation of the 15.69 GB update went very, very smoothly. Then again, I have installed no "fixes" or any other similar such file modifications.

 I tried that and paused the installation and restarted but same thing. I have not installed any mods or fixes.
