my fix:
- was stuck on decompressing a specific file/package, note the file name.
- stop updater/msfs.
- this file/package will be in: game folder -> Official -> Steam, at the bottom.
- delete the file with same name as in the msfs updater.
- start msfs/updater - updating did continue on nicely!
(i did also rename my community folder before, but don't think this had relevance).
earlier i also had success using limiting the download speed drastically for msfs, but no longer have the limiter software. however the above solution was way easier anyways.
Hope it works for someone at least!
