Cannot Start MSFS 2020 - Warning that it isn't released

Featured Replies

I just went to fire up MSFS 2020 (Game Pass Edition) and I get the following warning:

"You're too early

We know you really want to get started, but you'll have to wait a bit longer. Check the store for the launch date"

It also happens when I try and load from the store. WTH !

Anyone else had this and know how to fix it?

I have had problems starting the sim for few hours now. Found a notification from the Xbox Live site that they got some problems. As I try to start the sim, I get the "request not supported" message.

I just found out my Subscription expired today but I never cancelled it,

When I look at my subscriptions it says the next payment is due today but there is no way for me to even pay now.

OK it looks like there XBox services are indeed down.

Well this sucks ! I guess maybe it is time to cancel my subscription and purchase outright.

Looks like I won't be flying anywhere just now 😞

I did try the reset app option but it looks like an issue on their end. I cannot even see an option to pay my subscription which is due today

I got a message that xbox live is back on line and running, but still as I try to open the sim, the message comes to inform that "request not supported". Has anybody got a clue, what´s going on and how to solve this thing?

i just had a minor problem where it said it had to sync with xbox  , then it did and now i am fine,   wonderful to how many other things besides the game have to work in order to play this .

i swear my grammar is not as bad as above  , i think avsim is eating random words or its my laptop,,, i dunno,

Just to update this issue, I finally managed to get my sim back and running. The culprit was the latest Windows update KB4579311. Removed that and the sim started normally. Great job from Microsoft.....

After a call with Microsoft they confirmed that my subscription had been cancelled which is weird, I definitely did not do this.

I re subscribed to ultimate for $1, will look to purchase now I think.
