Store version here and quit to desktop works fine, BR

Switch to windowed and the version will be displayed on the white upper bar on the left side. HTH. M.

Surely this thread has more than run its course?

Or maybe less highly loaded with the working people back to their workplaces 🙂 M.

^^^^ NOPE ! For cchiozza .

Yes indeed, you couldn't make this poor show up. 500 Gb/s up and down. .

I have decided to use a 4TB m.2 Lexor on an external USB4 enclosure using my onboard 10Mb/S output - Strix Z-790F Mobo. I have, for the last couple of weeks been using my MSFS 2020 Community Folder contents on a 1.5GB Partition and have found it to be entirely acceptable. I also have a Mini PC with a gen 14 I5 processor and 4 USB4 [Thunderbolt] outputs. I am going to use a 2nd Partition for MSFS 2024 which will leave quite a chunk of "spare" space to, perhaps, carry the Rolling Cache for each Sim. I am also doing to try this drive on the Mini PC to determine if this can handle the installations and, if so, will look at an external powerful GFX card. My main system has a 13th Gen I7 with a 4090, but that draws a large quantity of mains power. We shall see.

Exactly!!

I hope that they concentrate their efforts on producing a better Flight Simulator. 🙂

16.8 GB is showing as update size. At my 3MB/S it's going to take a long while. There is a glimmer of hope though, on June 27th my 500G fibre line will be installed hopefully giving me WiFi 6E which my current 3 unit + modem which my nest has. The fibre external box was installed yesterday. The next visit [by a different engineer] brings the line indoors to the lounge at the rear of the house - roll on. BR M.

I make it just over 29 and a half cents a day 🙂 BR M.

Saturday morning UK time and FINALLY I have managed to complete the update with the content manager stuff taking many hours 😞 I have a barely acceptable internet connection of around 35Mb/S [3.5 MB/S] as I live in the countryside, but getting 1 or 2 Mb/S for much of that time on this update. I did, however, manage to up the speed by using my NordVPN connection, just to establish the start of the download and once downloading at 5 or 6 Mb/S dropping the VPN and was then downloading at 20 - 30 Mb/S. The slow stuff was the Content Manager updates. I am somewhat dreading the future with MSFS 2024 requiring downloading at all times when online in the Sim I will have a lesser experience than currently 😞. There is a little hope that our small village will get full fibre early 2024, so here's hoping. This update was particularly difficult. BR M.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I searched and removed all F: and Steam entries in the registry - took a while, there were a multiplicity of entries 😞 Tried the install and No Go, but error message changed to F: Invalid Drive 😞 Soooo, I formatted a small usb thumdrive , plugged it in and set the drive letter to F: Tried the install again and the installer offered to install to F: but the "3 dots" were present and permitted a change to the Community Folder on the D Drive. SUCCESS!!!!! but, to me, a strange way of installation. I am content now and am about to do a very quick flight before tea time. Thanks again for replying. BR. M.

Good Morning All. Yesterday I purchased the A2A Comanche and have the following Issue. Background info - Some 2 years ago I had Steam MSFS installed but eventually decided to go with The Store version. I have required Steam VR to run with my VR Headset so this has been added to the system Drive C On starting the A2A installer, it quits with the error being that Steam MSFS is not present on Drive F. There is no Drive F in the system any more - This [F: Drive] was the original destination for Steam MSFS but was uninstalled before a new copy of Windows 11 Pro was setup then MSFS Store added to Drive D. The usercfg.opt file correctly identifies the location of MSFS on the D Drive. All other purchased materiel installs correctly, so I am totally befuddled - not difficult for me, aged 79 🙂 - so any guidance/help would be most welcome. Thanks Kindly. M.

A320 Pilot will help. Go here: HTH M.
