I got that warning too.  Waited two or three minutes and it finished up.  Probably overloaded system.

Indeed, a royal PITA that really should not occur - after all, they *knew* it was to be delivered today 😞

Microsoft owns a cloud service: Azur. This shouldn't be a problem.

Got the update installed, got the extra packages for the A310 and DC-3 from the marketplace, and then the connection died.

I was able to fly the DC-3 with generic ground textures, but that was about it.
Didn't want to ruin my experience and try the others yet.

Schrödinger's Flight Sim...
Until you open the box that is the program, you just don't know!

The problem with Schrödinger's "cat's still alive in the box" theory is that you can smell the dead cat in the box before you open it.

A DCS evening for me then. Mmm, Spifire? F-86?, Mustang? I know! Polikarpov I-16. hours of fun getting it airborne and a nice rest in the hospital after landing it. Sorted.

Oh, and a few large whiskys. 😁

My download keeps  getting stuck at 16.64 GB and loops back to 15.7. Should I do anything?

Sometimes this happens and the download loops infinitely. This has not happened to me in a long time but quitting and restarting has always sorted it out -- it is managed so you do not start all over again, just from the last successfully downloaded packet.
