I just signed off as a beta user. When starting MSFS again I had a 500 kb mandatory install. Guess that wiped the 'I am open to the beta' info. Curious to see if later today there will be some updates to the already installed 1.21.18

I did the same, and my version number is 1.21.13.0 right now, I have Steam.

I was running the beta version and got the compulsory update this morning.  Only a small one and it was installed in a couple of seconds.

This is not a "hotfix" this is a patch. This release is basically the beta (which has been live for several weeks) being released to general public as a stable patch.

When you leave the flight, your sim will take another update when 1.21.18.0 is released, but the version number will remain the same.

This is what I am referring to.

Exited the Beta. Fired up MSFS. 500kb download. Done.

Painless and quick.   But let always predict the worst possible outcome eh Bob!

500 Kb ? you are sure ? Like in half a Meg ? Not 50 Gb or, at least, 500 Mb ? 

Sorry 🤣

518K/B to be exact. I will check again in 37 minutes to make sure that is all though. If you were not already running the Beta I would imagine it will be much more though.

Beta from non-beta download size will of course be different.

Same here, but was on the beta, running smooth only pointed the installer to the current install 🙂

once you have installed today's patch successfully and everything is working as expected, let's not forget to FORMAT drive C and re-install Windows or was it the other way around? I can see this forum getting flooded with the usual stories anytime soon.  😊
