MSFS does not load, checking for updates frozen

Featured Replies

Pilots, besides some nice flights in the cfbw modded neo today I also have some issues today, now with MSFS refusing to start. It hangs at the „set your experience“ screen with a frozen circle next to checking for updates. I closed MSFS via task manager (which does not say „not responding“ btw) and moved all mods (actually the neo) out of the community folder. Internet connection is on at a rate of rather whopping 220. Am I alone? Is this a server issue at MS side? Did a search but found nothing here. Help appreciated, DAD

Alright. Seems it was Aerosofts free EDLP. I struggled before with that one today, it finally downloaded and installed but something must have gone wrong, just deleted it and now I am past the update screen. First time even MS store downloads in the official folder cause issues. Thanks for listening anyway, all good now
