Thanks for the response Bob. Do you know of some things that are safe to delete there? Thanks...The reason I ask is that the next update for MSFS I will be surely screwed...LOL

Run cleanmgr as administrator and clean everything, you will probably recover +-25Gb

Yes, this is the file fs-base-cgl. I have no use for the offline textures, since to me, operating MSFS offline is pointless in a sim that is built around the whole concept of satellite-streamed scenery. Deleting this saved almost 60 gigabytes.

I deleted all the aircraft, that I never fly, the lessons, tours, and everything else I have never or will never use.

Thank you

I spent an hour or so today deleting all the new aircraft what came with the update yesterday in the content manager, still not finished but up to now I have reclaimed about 20GB back, I have no interest whatsoever in historic aircraft including the A310 which I will never touch, I like to fly the modern Airliners

I am with  you. I looked at a Video of an A310, and thanks, but no thanks. I'm sticking with the A 320.

Don't forget that you also need to have at least 150 GB on your main drive to run the sim.

On the Windows installation drive?

But we don’t need the offline textures when we loose connectivity? I mean when our bandwidth is not up to the task.

Yes, that's what I was told when I couldn't get the Sim to start. I had dipped below 150 GB.
