rooted1

Hi all. I was all set to reinstall MSFS, but in desperation I googled the above issue, and one of the (many) suggestions was to do a 'system restore' on my PC. I wound the clock back by two weeks, did the restore (which takes quite a while), rebooted, then went to updates in the MS Store. There was only a small update...and then I started up MSFS. Lo and behold, after it had thought about it for a minute or two, the latest update started to download. Haven't had a problem since.
