December 6, 20214 yr And Microsoft/Asobo has dedicated a forum just to discuss the public beta for this: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c/decupdateflight/295 This is interesting, maybe all future public/opt-in betas will be like this. Edit: This is not an official update for MSFS. Downloading it can cause more problems/grief for you, especially if you aren't a technical person. This is just a beta test for a possible hotfix, so Microsoft/Asobo can get feedback from the community on the hotfix. If you aren't a technical person, you may want to wait for the official update, which should be released at a later date, after this beta test has concluded.

Here is the quote from the mod: Quote Topic closed now that the Beta is live to the Public. There will be a separate thread for Beta Testers to review and join. https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/early-access-to-public-beta-1-21-17-0-is-out/478751/395 And yes, it past 4 PM UTC time already.

December 6, 20214 yr Never done this before. Does this mess up my existing installation, or does it install normally like other updates?

December 6, 20214 yr This is the public update, which you don't have to join in, because you may have to reinstall the sim later on when the beta is finished, yes?
