May 2May 2 Despite having been searching this forum thoroughly, I couldn't find the thread in which it was explained how to reinstall FS2024 in a fast way. Can one of you please point me into the right direction or even inform me how I can reinstall fs2024 fastest? Thanks a lot, Hans Kind regards, Hans van WIjhe Acer Predator P03-640 2.10 Ghz Intel 12th Gen Core 17-12700F 64GB memory, Noctua NH-U9S Cooler, 1.02 TB SSD HD, 1.02 TB HD, NVidia Geforce RTX 3070 16GB Memory, Windows 11 (x64)
May 2May 2 There's only one way if you use Xbox or Steam... And its a rather fast install unless you have a very outdated internet convection.

May 2May 2 Author I have got a very fast internet connection and my FS2024 is a Store one. I remember a Norwegian member once posted a thread on how to re-install FS2024, but alas, I cannot find that thread anymore.

I also created the custom Community folder. Easy to know where the folders are. C:\XboxGames\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 MSFS

May 3May 3 As a seasoned Uninstaller, I must admit MSFS uninstalls and reinstalls as a charm! Never been so easy with the MS sims... As easy as X-Plane these days... Well.... almost.... AND!!!! It saves most of your controller and other options!!! Some will need verification, but most of it works beautifully...

May 3May 3 Author I copied my Community folder to a safe place, then uninstalled FS2024 via XBox, reinstalled via the same route and that was it. Only had to reset my graphic settings and put my saved Community folder back to where it belonged Kind regards, Hans van WIjhe Acer Predator P03-640 2.10 Ghz Intel 12th Gen Core 17-12700F 64GB memory, Noctua NH-U9S Cooler, 1.02 TB SSD HD, 1.02 TB HD, NVidia Geforce RTX 3070 16GB Memory, Windows 11 (x64)

Anyway, everyone can do it their preferred way, I don't overthink it, I just reinstall, and it has always worked fine for me.
