Running FS2020 on 2 PC's from the same MS Account?

[vonsworld 0]

Please excuse this simple question but I am new to the Microsoft Store and their Apps.

 

I purchased FS2020 for my Dad and he runs it at home on his PC logged into my MS account.

 

Can I download and install it on the PC at my home, using the same MS Account, and run it at the same time as him? Or do I need to buy another copy of FS2020?

 

Thanks for your help :-)

If you think for a moment....... you will realize that is not going to work.

I thought games from the MS Store could be loaded by the owner on more than one PC? I've done a google search and this seems to be the case, so why not with FS2020?

 

Please indulge me 🙂

Well if you are running the same copy on your PC and you Dads PC, that means you paid for one copy , and now have two copies. Can't you see how that is wrong???

There are a few games that you can load on more than one computer, but the majority will not allow more than one machine at a time to use the program. That is part of anti-pirate protection.

I think that is the key distinction..

I don't mind buying another copy, but I didn't want to buy a second copy only to find that I didn't really need to !

There are plenty of posts on forums that say an MS store game owner can run it on more than one pc.
