Two versions of MSFS in Marketplace Library?

Featured Replies

I purchased MSFS Standard Edition from the Marketplace, and downloaded it and it seems to run fine. I am using a PC. In the General Options I see I have "PC Settings". But when I open the Marketplace Library to Launch MSFS I see several entries. One is Microsoft Flight Simulator icon with Digital Ownership, Modified yesterday another is one  is Microsoft Flight Simulator with its icon,Modified yesterday  and a third is Microsoft Flight Simulator:Standard  Edition Purchased Yesterday and it shows a cloud and offers to download the program and needing 120 GB of disk space. Did I install the XBOX version by mistake? Why are there three entries? Is there a difference between the versions shown in the Library?

When I purchased it I don't recall there being options about which one to download.

Thanks,

Greg

This is just Microsoft's confusing way of showing content.  I have the same three entries.

OK, Thanks. Weird they would offer to download it again as if it was a separate program.

If you click on the pictures, you will see that the "Standard Edition" is a "Bundle" consisting of MSFS and Digital ownership.

So, three items in total 🙂

OK now I get it. I was worried for a bit there.

Don’t worry. The whole download/UI experience seems to have been designed by committee.😧
