That may be the secret sauce for this. I choose two separate folders on the D:\ for the install. Maybe if I install it in the same folder as 2020 that may work. The problem is I don't want 2024 to anyway affect the 2020 folders in the same parent directory.

I'm not using Steam at all. Like you I prefer the XBOX App install. I don't have Map Enhancement installed so I don't know what's causing the issue. Like I said above I may try Installing through Steam but that's another purchase. I'm pretty confident that should work because both installs aren't going through the same Microsoft app.

A Community folder is not created without the sim being fully installed. I can't get to fully installed on initial loading. It stops at 97%. Was you install of 2024 prior to SU6's release meaning you already had 2024 installed well before SU6? As with anything there shouldn't be a problem if you installed the sim around the SU2 era or something like that. Heck SU6 might not be it, it could be SU5 or it just could be something screwed on my PC blocking the two sims.😒

I was thinking since the I have the store version of 2020, get the Steam version of 2024. My point above is if you've install 2024 before SU6 it may have not been a problem. Just shooting in the dark here.

I'm thinking the latest SU's might have changed some things that were previously not a problem. Too many people in the past as I've read different forums had no issue running the two sims on the same PC.

I finally decided to take the plunge with the deal going on (that comes around every now and then) for FS2024. I get so much out of 2020 I didn't see the need to switch (amazing releases still pouring out, smooth VR, etc). Plus what's important to me was AI/ATC getting fixed at least to the level of FSX was for airliner flying. Since this was never addressed with 2024 to any meaningful level and overall it's in worst shape both in 2020 and 2024 I resorted to more GA flying. I've actually grown to love that more. Private Jets and releases like the BlackSquare's A36/Baron has more than filled the gap. Now that real world Airliner flying is right up there with the problems of the Greyhound buses we used to avoid in the US in some cases worse (unruly passengers, over crowding, TSA etc.), it's a headache to even think about it even in the sim world. A broken AI/ATC system makes it even worse of a bother. There's no joy anymore flying into cities in the sim knowing the hell of the real world on a few different levels (LA, NY, Chicago, etc). After my son's private lessons and seeing corporate passengers just walk up to their jets and head to places like Aspen, that's the better way to travel especially in the sim. With 2020's amazing ground scenery GA more than fit the bill. Now off to 2024: First off I need both sims to run on my computer which seems to cause more trouble than it's worth I tried copying my controller settings so I can use them in 2024 (I hate where 2024 went with controller setups). I ended up by mistake blowing up my 2020 settings so I have to rebuild them. So much for that... After installing 2024 Deluxe Pro Edition it won't get past 97%. I tried everything. It's not in the XBOX directory, it's not on the C:\ drive but in the 4TB drive I have for FS2020 in it's own FS2024 folder. It will not get past 97% even if I pull the internet connection just to get it past that hump (AI suggested this) Last but not least Navigraph HUB will not load up. It just hangs I've since uninstalled 2024 and all magically has started back working as it should (Navigraph Hub, XBOX App pointers, etc) 2024 seems to be all or nothing on my end. I've heard some have got this to work so if there's any suggestion please chime in. I'd like to start making the transaction but I need both sims to work for now.

We need someone on these forums to do a direct comparison between the two headsets (CL, Dream Air). Blindly believing AI sometimes is not the best if finding the truth. Wish I had money to have both of them. I can't believe in some areas the CL is better than the newer Dream Air. Too bad the comfort level leaves allot to be desired considering the price. There's also a difference in performance between FS2020 and 2024 so we have to make sure we know what we're talking about here in terms of the two sims.🤔

That's why I regulate certain aircraft to regions when I decide to fly there: 1. BS Baron/A36 - Florida flying up and down the state 2. BS Duke - Carefree airport just north of Pheonix (Nice for short hopes to Vegas) 3. BS KingAir - Charter flying from Vegas to the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, etc 4. BS Commander - SoCal flying up and down the coast (previously the bird of choice was FSReborn's Piper Meridian 500) 5. Default Cirrus - Local Georgia ATL area flying All the bush/float planes are relegated to Alaska Forges area or the Pacific Northwest These are to name a few but having designated areas for certain aircraft breaks things up a bit. Since I live in Florida, I say what would be my bird of choice for real world ownership? What would I like to fly in if I had friends in other places like Arizona or the Gold Coast? Then stick to those areas for those birds. Then there's military aviation with add-ons like Super Carrier Pro (with it's global locations) or off the beaten path there's the yacht add-ons that look best in the waters of Monico and Tahiti (guess I went off the beaten path). This for me keeps it interesting.🙃

You better have something as you get older because women, clubs, and booze are a thing of the past. That's the trouble with people as they get older. Some feel they should fit into a box of what they should be. Do what you love because that's all you have on a day-to-day bases when decide to shut off the news and you phone. As long as the hobbies are constructive, care less what others think. Now that I'm off from work, I'm off to fly that new 'Commander 114' I just bought...😁

This just worked for me, go figure.😶💯

I've known you for years on these forums and the work you've done modeling and helping us all out when needed is immeasurable. Take care of yourself and keep us posted. Your one of the originals around here.

Talk about putting lipstick on a pig...🤡 Just joking, Sh** happens sometimes.

I was just about to switch over to that one. Thanks for the heads up.☠️👆😁

Florida down...

Any intel on this from anyone? Does this affect Flight Simulator staff in any way?
