FS2020 Just Won't Start

Featured Replies

I downloaded and installed the standard version, from the MS Store, onto a newly purchased 1TB SSD hard drive I bought just for this.  I open the program in the start menu.  I allow the MS Store Package Dependency Installer to make changes. Now it crawls at a snails pace.  I get the warning that my system does not meet requirements and there may be errors.  OK it. I get the X Box, OSOBO , Blacksnake and copyright windows.  Get up to Welcome Set Your Experience.  In a sub window, it checks for updates.  This is where it happens. I get up to New Scenery, with the blue bar at the bottom half way across and then it just shuts off.  I uninstalled it and reinstalled it again and actually its worse than the first time.  The first time I at least got up to a window where it wanted me to set some preferences but I don't reach there anymore.  Yes, I know, my Graphics card is below the requirements, but I would have at least thought the program would load and run, just with poor graphics.  If I wasn't happy, then I would look into a new card.  But I would hate to sink a few hundred dollars into a card and it still doesn't work.  Is there anything I can do?

Thanks, Dave

You could try reducing your connection speed, sometimes that fixes that problem for me. At reduced speed the update can complete and not get stuck in a loop.

Hi Dave, be sure you're signed into the Xbox App and the Microsoft Store w/ the same credentials as for MSFS.
