January 31, 20224 yr Recently I start getting the message "Press any button to start" when I launch MSFS. It then takes me to an x-box screen (I am running a MS store version of MSFS) where I log in but that returns me to the "Press any button to start" screen and I am stuck in a loop. The only way around this is to reboot the PC and hope for the best next time around. Very annoying. What can I do to get around this. Johan Pienaar

It happened to me yesterday for the first time ... not sure what the problem is. But at the same time Windows prompted me to repair my Microsoft account because there is a problem to authenticate. Maybe something to do with the recent server problems/DDOS attacks.
