September 29, 20232 yr Success! I finally downloaded everything after hours of trying. In top right corner I reset the "Multiplayer Servers" to North Europe. Despite what others say, It sure seemed like it helped for DL speed and not choking so often. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

September 29, 20232 yr I agree with J Tavendale. Something besides busy servers was likely an issue. Instead of the status bar just pausing in the middle of a download and later continuing, it seemed to jump back quickly and start all over again. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

I could accept the initial sim update taking a while as I was also watching and NHL game online at the same time, but now the 8 updates in Content Manager are a pain. They failed at the first attempt ("Package Failed") - never had that before.🤔 4.63GB to download and only 370mb into my second attempt at a snail's pace...🐌😴 OS: Win11 Home; Mobo: Asus TUF Gaming Z690-Plus WiFi D4; CPU: Intel i5-12400 (Alder Lake) 4.4 GHzRAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 64Gb (4x16GB) 3600 MHz; GPU: MSI Radeon RX 5700XT [8GB] SSD: Corsair Force MP510 (for OS); 2x 1TB & 1x 2TB Sabrent Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 (one for sim, two for addons)HDD: Seagate 3TB (Data); Seagate 1TB (Programs), ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1B Curved 31.5" monitor, 1440p, 38Mbs ethernet Fulcrum One Yoke, Honeycomb Bravo throttle, Thrustmaster Airbus TCA sidestick & throttle, Logitech Pro pedals, Xbox wireless gamepad (1st gen)
September 29, 20232 yr I got stuck for hours on Decompressing xxx .. I restarted MSFS multiple times no luck. Good thing I decided to watch movie "Midway" on Netflex along the way. Now the movie is done but I'm still stuck. 9950X3D / 64GB / RTX5090 / Pimax Crystal Light / Win11
September 29, 20232 yr Oddly my laptop install updated.. Nuked my desktop install and was trying to reinstall. I've stopped that and started copying files over via a portable HDD Cheers,John TavendaleTextures by Tavers - https://www.facebook.com/texturesbytavers

September 29, 20232 yr LONG PAINFULL SIGH...finally finished all the content updates. The last update I ran (1.42GB) ran better, and only backed up and restarted downloading twice. I suspect as the hours wear on the servers are under less stress. So for those still awake, or just waking up, give it a try - you may have better (not great, but better) luck. This has to be among the most time consuming and painful updates I've ever done, including one CTD in the middle of updating content. ...and why does EVERY SINGLE UPDATE reset MSFS to windowed mode, even the content updates??!! i7-6700k • Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 • 32GB DDR4 2666 • EVGA FTW ULTRA RTX3080 12GB

September 29, 20232 yr Finally finished the Content Manager updates. Went straight to Logbook to see if it was ok... Panicked when it showed "no entries" but it finally populated after several seconds. Exited it and went straight back and it was the same again. And again. So there's definitely a glitch there.🙄 OS: Win11 Home; Mobo: Asus TUF Gaming Z690-Plus WiFi D4; CPU: Intel i5-12400 (Alder Lake) 4.4 GHzRAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 64Gb (4x16GB) 3600 MHz; GPU: MSI Radeon RX 5700XT [8GB] SSD: Corsair Force MP510 (for OS); 2x 1TB & 1x 2TB Sabrent Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 (one for sim, two for addons)HDD: Seagate 3TB (Data); Seagate 1TB (Programs), ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1B Curved 31.5" monitor, 1440p, 38Mbs ethernet Fulcrum One Yoke, Honeycomb Bravo throttle, Thrustmaster Airbus TCA sidestick & throttle, Logitech Pro pedals, Xbox wireless gamepad (1st gen)
September 29, 20232 yr Yep, this is the last time I rush in to update on update day. Between MS and Asobo, they really fluffed this update. Pretty sure it is all [totally inadequate] server related.

I went to .../Microsoft Flight Simulator/Official/Steam, deleted the remaining .fpatch files, and started the installer. It downloaded the files again, no problem.
September 29, 20232 yr Finally got it working! After initally locking up while downloading the new content (had to kill MSFS in task manager). Relaunched and downloaded in background (looked like the DFW airport package?). Flew TBM and CJ4. Both were butter. First time ever getting the VNAV and APPR working for fully coupled RNAV approach in the TBM! So cool way to go WT guys! Now to reinstall the community mods and see what crashes it first... 🙂 SAR Pilot. Flight Sim'ing since the beginning.
