November 13, 2025Nov 13 I’m stuck on the start screen. 0% - Waiting For Authentication… I checked the MSFS 2020/24 forums and I see a message from MS saying an Authentication issue has been resolved. Anyone else having this issue or is it just me and my computer. I’ve never had this issue before. thanks IM

November 13, 2025Nov 13 For that kind of problem, refer to the official forum: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/ and specifically https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/online-services-monitoring/486800 As you know, the problem has been announced and it seems to be fixed since then. I've made a test flight at 0600z without any issue from Paris, France. Quote UPDATE 0020 UTC: The authentication issue should now be resolved. If you are still experiencing problems launching MSFS (2020) or MSFS 2024, please let us know in a forum thread so we can continue investigating. ////////////////////// We are monitoring scattered reports of some players not being able to launch MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024 and getting the following error message after the splash screen with the company logos. We have escalated this issue internally and will provide further information when it is available. Based on our own internal testing, it appears inconsistent, with some of our team members getting the error and others being able to launch the sim normally without issue. We apologize to anyone experiencing this error and thank you for your patience as we work to resolve it. Edited November 13, 2025Nov 13 by vbazillio Vincent B.

November 13, 2025Nov 13 Had this issue for some hours now. MS working on it despite saying resolved. Using a VPN set to Naples, Italy worked for me on the second try. Cheers. i9-12900K | Asus Prime Z690-A | RTX 3070 @ 4K | 32GB DDR5-5200 | 2TB M.2 NVMe | Win 11

November 13, 2025Nov 13 Commercial Member Ahhh the good old days where you just had to download a no cd exe for fs9.

The primary fix then was a pencil to spool the tape back in as it invariably disgorged in to the cassette player :)) - Jane Whittaker
November 13, 2025Nov 13 Author Thanks for all the feedback. It’s nice to know it’s not just me and my computer. I’m in Australia and it’s been like this all day, so my patience is almost looking like my startup Authenticator progress bar. thx everyone IM
