Well yesterdays hotfix did not go well for me. What ever miss step I made has necessitated a full install and I am now downloading 162 gigs hoping the sim will run well when its finished.

 

My first flight sim was fs98 and then progressed to xplane which I had been using prior to fs2020. Needless to say I never experienced any thing like this with past sims. I am at the point now where I have to ask myself if all this hassle is worth it.

 

There use to be only one thing that could make a Nun start cussing like a sailor and that was trying to play golf. Golf is now in danger of losing that title to installing and running fs2020. I hate to call this money badly spent and move on but I am starting to see no alternative. I am Catholic so perhaps I should consult an actual Nun on what I should do here.

Some more info would be helpful. You don't describe exactly what took place after the hot fix, except having to do a full re-install. Did you purchase MSFS through MS Store or through Steam? Have you had issues with updates previously? If yes, what kinds of issues? What are your PC specs? If bought through Steam DO NOT "verify game files" for MSFS, as this initializes a complete re-install of MSFS. I have the Steam version and latest update was a 302 MB 'hot fix' for the flaps issue resulting from previous update. No issues with the update at all. Also when in game, always check your Content Folder to be sure all updates fully installed.
