I haven't used FS202 in a couple of months.  I tried to open it up and it loads to a scenic screen that says "press any hey to start".  I do that and it goes to a dialog box that says "Welcome Back, username (with my usename)" with a green bar that says "Let's Go!".  I click that bar and it cycles back to the scenic promo screen with "Press Any Key".  So it loops between those.

I have flown successfully with it many times, but just haven't done so in quite awhile. 

Any ideas?

Thanks, Jeff Callender

Hi Jeff,

It sounds like you're a few updates behind - as the "press any key" was removed, even before Sim Update 4 (we're currently on Sim Update 5).

If you bought MSFS from the Microsoft Store (or are a Game Pass user), I think you'll need to open up the Microsoft Store app, hit "Get Updates" in the top right hand of the app, then select MSFS.  It should then begin updating - warning: if you have 2 full sim updates to download, this will take a long time!

If you bought MSFS from Steam, I've no idea how the sim updates work. Presumably, you'd launch Steam and it should auto-update MSFS.
