@ ak416,
I went through your links to the flightsim zendesk:
Here we go : now I'm going into that Windows Power Shell, hey no more scarier than CHKDSK /r heh? I type in those (2) commands like they said to do. nutt-N happened, move on down to the next suggestion:
cleanmgr.exe and and let it do its thing ...Nut-N, restart MSFS .... same darn thing: hang up.
Now I move down to the next suggestion:
Now this is all together too much for some to do to get my MSFS to work, as it has been working fine except for a couple of hiccups here and there.
I did it anyway... I had to created a second Microsoft account to redownload my PMDG 737-800 as per there so-called support forum. That was another mess I had to put up with, but it worked.
So, I went to Donald Duck's account (yes you heard it correctly) had to scrummage around to find all the passwords and stuff.
Went to the Microsoft Store / XBox / Gaming Services stuff & I let Donald Duck re-installed MSFS over the top of the one already on my C: drive .... Grrrrrrrrrrr those screenshots are on Donald Duck's account ... Nope-nodda-zip, same thing: Hung after about 6 GB installed.
@ Priller, My MSFS has never been listed as a program in the control panel and I had always though that as weird. I scrolled down to the "M's" and the whole control panel programs for that matter.
I've always (X 5 now) uninstalled MSFS by using the MSFS app.
I'm exhausted with these proceedings, as Gen. MacArthur said ... " These proceeding are closed." for a little while at least my head hurts.
I'm gonna d/l DCS tomorrow and see if it will install onto that D: drive
Y'all are a great bunch of guys! If y'all come to Birmingdamnham, Aladamnbama the beer & whiskey is on me.
