Yes, just happened to me as well. Same as everyone else, you lose connection, restart and the connection setting is off. Switch it back on, restart and it's fine...until it disconnects again.

Anyone having issues with autopilot not working, GPS, vnav and ALT all seem not to be functioning. 

I've just downloaded the AIG manager and I'm trying to find the appeal. It's great to see real liveries at an airport, but since the program doesn't work with TCAS, it feels very barren in the sky, when you can't see other planes around you. Then I flew from Logan to Providence and while Logan had planes, Providence was completely empty. 

Is the appeal of the game, having real life liveries and maybe seeing them in the air? The live ATC/traffic felt more immersive than this, but maybe I'm missing something? 

My update seems to be stuck at 98%, around the decompress-fs-base file section. I stopped the download and restarted but, it only had 50 mbs left to download and was stuck as well. I had it sit for over an hour and there wasn't any progress. Any suggestions of how to try to reinstall the update? It's the first issue I've had with any updates and I don't have any mods installed. 

Does this addon also work with the ATC in MSFS?

What is the approach fly back bug?

I believe it's the issue when you Activate to Approach and the GPS sends to back to the previous waypoint rather than you continuing on to the next waypoint. Essentially, you end up doing a 180 to fly to your previous waypoint and then turn around and go to the original waypoint you were heading.

Looks like an old restart of the computer fixed the problem.

Mods, feel free to delete this thread.

Ran into an issue where my keyboard, mouse and joystick are all unresponsive. Everything was working and then midflight it just stopped. I restarted the game and it still doesn't work 

Mouse - I can't freelook around the cockpit or zoom in or out. But I can change the dials within the cockpit that I can see. I can use the menu on the main page without a problem, but it's when I'm inside the plane I'm having problems. 

Joystick - Nothing works

Keyboard - Only escape key works.

Anyone run into an issue like this before?

What airplane?

Any of the airlines or the CJ4.

I'm trying to find a good tutorial on how to use the FMC and I haven't been able to find anything that walks you through how to use it. Does anyone have any suggestions or links? 

I love seeing the real world traffic on my Garmin, looking out my window and trying to find those planes. It gives it a real-world feel to the game.

Is there a way to set the tail number and call sign to be the same for every plane? I'd rather avoid going to ATC Options and setting it each time. I have a specific number and call sign I like to use, as it helps me stay aware when ATC speaking to me. 

I enjoy flying the TBM and noticed that the Garmen on the TBM will only show other planes in your vicinity while flying with Live traffic, but if you change it to AI traffic only, other traffic doesn't appear. I"m assuming this is a bug, but wanted to see if others had thoughts.

Thanks for the insight,  I wasn't too clear in my dilema.  Do I go 32GB right now in my current PC (i7-6700K, 16GB, 980Ti) just to enjoy the experience more until the next PC gets built in around 9 months time.  What's the bang for the buck of 32GB over 16 so to speak?

I have the same setup as you do and upgraded to 32GB prior to the game launching and I haven't had any issues with it. I've run the game on mostly high and a few ultra (not sure if it does much at ultra on a 1080p). But overall, it's run very smoothly for me, maybe a few stutters when I"m flying close to a dense forest though. Flew around NYC and didn't have any real issues. 

Thank you all, I'll give it a try!

Which acft?  I've found some are like how they were in FSX.  Some will work correctly.

Beechcraft King Air 350i and Cessna 172 Skyhawk (G1000) are two off the top of my head that I'm running into issues with.

I'm not sure if this is a broken AP issue or if I'm doing it wrong. When flying one of the prop planes, I'm able to turn on AP for altitude, but it seems to set the altitude to where my plane was at that level. But when I go and try to increase my altitude with the knobs, while the setting on the Garmin changes, the plane doesn't climb to that altitude. Is that a bug with AP or am I doing it wrong?

I've solved this issue, it's Throttle Axis!

I'm having difficulty figuring out how to control my throttle using the manual setup. It seems my options are either full throttle or no throttle. Either I"m looking in the wrong area or I'm not setting it up properly. Any suggestions on how to control your throttle power? 

So I was a moron and tried moving the game after installation from one drive to the next. But after the move, the game wouldn't play so I tried uninstalling the game. After which, I've restarted my computer and gone to the Microsoft Store to try to reinstall the game. Now when I try to reinstall it from the store, I continue to get a Error that I can't install the game. I'm at a lost of what to do. 

What is the "FX System" 

Apologies for the basic question

Looks like he is playing on a 1920x1080 monitor, assuming he is playing in 1080 then, it does look rather nice!

It seems the Beta will only be open to those who have the XBox Pass, which I guess you could purchase for $1 and then cancel after one month. 

Thanks for the advice!

I'm thinking of upgrading my computer for FS2020, currently I have 16GB ram and the GTX 980Ti graphics card. I was thinking of upgrading my ram to 32GB and leave my graphic card as is, as new cards seem to be very expensive. A few questions I was hoping someone could help me understand, the 32GB ram, in theory that should help the game run faster/smoother, while a new graphic cards would allow me to run on better settings. Are there upgraded graphics cards that are more cost effective (I'm new to figuring this stuff out and trying not to be awed by all the shiny new cards!).

If I had to pick on or the other, is RAM the first priority and then graphic cards?

Appreciate any help!
