Crashes while re-installing

Featured Replies

Following on from a previous post about CTD on launch. I decided to uninstall and re-install MSFS from Steam. To my dismay it then crashed after downloading only about 2 GB out of 100 GB. I have now re-started the installation because I can't think of anything else to do, but this seems a bit ominous and I wonder if I'm doing anything wrong.

When I uninstalled the app in Steam the process was very quick and I was left with quite a few leftover files at this location .....

C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator

... which I then deleted as per the instructions here .....

I then continued to follow the above instructions, which involved me choosing where to install the bulk of the files. I chose this location as I had done the first time I installed MSFS .....

D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimulator\Packages

Obviously the bulk of the files from the previous installation were still there (I assume) - so presumably they will be overwritten? Am I doing anything wrong?
