Installing and launching the Xbox App from the Microsoft Store worked for me too. Finally updating!

Wernigerode Castle

I have been on vacation in the area this summer and had one of the most amazing panoramic views I can imagine. I wish it would have been possible to capture on a photograph.

It was late afternoon, and I was driving on the L82 towards west. There was maybe a 5/8th cloud cover, the sun sending god-rays and one could see the Harz Mountains with the Brocken in the background and the silhoette of the castle in the foreground, the fields golden.

It was pure magic.

Have you tried launching the sim through the xbox app?  that's what got the update to show up in store for lots of us that were having the same issue.

Worked for me too! Thanks!👍 I already had the app so I loaded it and clicked "Get Update" in the Store again, and it started downloading Surviving Mars and Descenders too. Haven't played those in ages so I wonder how long they were waiting for updates?🙄

OK it worked for me. Thanks - excellent advice! Never had to do that before tho

You might already have it. It's so long since I fired it up that if it was failing to update for the same reason as MSFS today, it could have had a pending update sitting there for many months.😀

This was said in the official forums: "PSA if you can’t trigger the download in MS Store: Download and run the Xbox app from the store, then try again. Worked for me and others, unless it was coincidence… (I doubt it)".

I have the XBox companion app but not the XBox app. I will try it and report back.

It Worked!!! What do you know?

 

Worked for me as well, Thanks @Maladoror

Still nothing here on the Store.
Should I reinstall Windows?? 😵

It probably will work… by the time you finish reinstalling Windows, the update will be live for you.🤣

So I wonder if launching the XBox app will now be the standard way non-Steam users have to look for MSFS updates? To misquote, "The more things change the more they stay the same change"!🙄

sometimes you have to "buy" free stuff in the marketplace first

Not sometimes. Always.

I mean this is the 6th World Update and people still haven't memorized how the procedure works? 😉

Well at first glance finding the terrain and trees are very blurry and undefined from last build and anti aliasing on aircraft is bad 😞
