July 3, 20241 yr Long story short, my old PC died. I have a new one coming in. Will there any issues installing MSFS 2020 on my new PC without uninstalling from my previous PC (because I can't)? Thanks, Dave Edited July 3, 20241 yr by lehbird
July 3, 20241 yr No issues at all Dave. You can have MSFS installed on as many PCs as you like so long as you only use it on one PC at a time. MS knows who you are, where you are and whether you have a licence when you log on. Ryzen 5800X3D, Nvidia RTX5080 - 32 Gig DDR4 RAM, 1TB & 2 TB NVME drives - Windows 11 64 bit MSFS 2024 Premium Deluxe Edition Resolution 2560 x 1440 (32 inch curved monitor)

July 3, 20241 yr Did an install on a brand-new computer myself last weekend and was pleasantly surprised to discover it even brought my controller configuration over from my old machine. Saved me hours of setup I was not looking forward to. Richard P. Kelly
July 3, 20241 yr If you have a way to read the Hard Drive that you original installed the main MSFS content to you can copy that to the new computer and skip most of the install process.
