Stuck - Checking for Updates

Featured Replies

Any help would be appreciated.

It just sits and spins.

This is a fresh Steam install, trying to update to the latest version.  I have NO addons or anything else, it's clean.

Iv'e been getting stuck here lately also.  A few times I waited 20+ minutes.  Now I wait 5 until I pull the internet, select OK to proceed to the main menu and then I reenable the internet and ONLINE mode under data.

Interesting.

Alright, I'll give it some time to let it do whatever it is doing (which seems to be nothing).

Indeed, if you can turn off your Internet connection when this happens, you may go past it.

My problem was I had to restart the machine while it was updating to the 40th Anniversary Pack.

It was about 80% of the way there, I figured it would just pick up where it left off.

But now I'm stuck in this endless loop of nothingness.

Ouch...

If you open up your Official \ OneStore folder and sort by time/date.. what is the most recent file?

If it ends in "part", delete it and restart MSFS.

Thanks, I read this somewhere too, but it's too late, I went the easier route.

Full unininstall from Steam and reinstall.
