Sorry if this has been answered before but is there still a need to clear the Community folder before these updates?

I do not know if there is a need to do so, but it is certainly judicious to do so.  And I use the Addons Linker so it takes about 15 seconds.....

This is why we need an "opt in" beta, that was promised for Update #9. Well, I hope Asobo answers the question about the "opt in" beta in today's Twitch Q&A.

Agreed, while I am really happy with how this beta test process was handled, I think that it will be great to have the option between a stable build and a beta branch for new features. Now that they've made the first steps I think we will see them ramp up the complexity of the beta-testing initiatives.

I started the game and only saw a 16 GB update which is installing now. Is there another update much smaller? 

I think you may be experiencing the same issues that Barnes noted above. Restart your computer and wait until the client is downloaded in the Microsoft Store first.

Yes, it's noted in the download instructions. It is recommended for every major update.

up to 23,38GB on the installation manager

Apart of this 23.38GB download, is there another one in-sim (Content Manager) to download the Content Update for France/Benelux?.

Well I am already downloading the 16GB file, so I am afraid to restart the computer while it is downloading.

Pause the download first and then close the installation manager.

Isn't 1.28 GB rather small for a scenery upgrade?

That's barely the equivalent of one NZA airport scenery.

Several more downloads waiting for you. Microsoft Store with 1 Gb, main update in the sim 23 Gb, Content Manager (updates a couple challenges plus some US and Japanese airports 0,5 Gb, Marketplace for the World Update 5 Gb. Seems quite a cumbersome update process for any newcomers.

Downloading 22GB...zzz

I can't wait to see what they've broken following this update. Any bets? I think the sky and ground will be reversed and we'll all have to fly upside down until they issue a hotfix (in a month or two;)

What bliss this is!

I have been updating programs for decades. Why does the Asobo update always feel like a cluster $$#@

 

 

 

So uhh...Is the 10 Degree Bug really, really, truly, actually, really, fixed this time?

After all is downloaded shut down the Sim and restart your PC - that should do it..

I had that. I was logged in to the wrong MS store account.

i was and still am logged in with the only MS account i have in the MS Store and nothing to see there about an update.

Meanwhile, the 17.33 GiB has finished with download/install

I click on CONTINUE and see l'Arc the Triomphe splash screen 'World Update IV' 

In the menu I see i am still on 1.14.6.0

I restart FS2020 and now it wants to update the same 1.14.6.0 but this time only 81.69 MiB

I continue ....

Again Arc de Triomphe splash screen with 'World Update IV' etc.

waiting ..... and I am in the menu now, and.....still on 1.14.6.0

I restart FS2020 again (and still no change in MS Store)

checking for updates...

nothing

can't check if anything changed to the scenery because constantly getting CTD's (vcruntime140.dll in eventlog) navigating in the menu just like the last few weeks.

 

Brilliant!

Does not sound right though @Bobsk8. Would not want to call it either but I think if I were you, I would cancel the download and restart the PC, start over. You should be seeing Release Notes for 1.15.7.0

Well I am not sure how exactly do close the Installation manager, so I am just going to let it finish what it prompted me do to when I started MSFS 20 minutes ago. Then I will see if it still works...LOL

 

 

 

I'm getting faster speeds using ProtonVPN lmao I got up to 70Megabits at one point, I normally only get 30.
