As I mentioned earlier, yes, you can if you buy it from the Microsoft Store, not Steam.

No worries. It looked innocent enough at the start.

When it comes to computers and software, waiting for the actual release, and third party reviews, is often the best route to make the best decision and avoid disappointment.

Yes, for some cases it is possible. They seem pretty clear on it not being used for MSFS though.

PS, linking a video showing pirating games probably isn't the best example.

No, what that means is that all add-on aircraft on the Xbox can only be installed through the built-in Marketplace, not third party websites or other sources. As Tim mentions, aircraft in the...

See this article for some hints as to what is coming for the Xbox release.

I did say we would need to wait until it's released to see exactly what the Xbox edition entails. However, I'm not sure why the points I raised would be any different for MSFS than any other game...

While they are working to keep the experience as similar as possible, there still isn't much in the way of specific details. As with many things, the best way to avoid disappointment would be to wait...

Some people have solved this by logging out of the MS/Xbox account and logging back in again.

The subscription is called Xbox Gamepass for PC. While you did buy the standalone edition, it still requires an Xbox account.

The more specific term to search for is "Xbox Gamertag". See the link below for the options on how to change it.

Asobo lists 50 Mbps as the ideal download speed, so you should be good that way.

If you have a strong and stable connection using wifi, it shouldn't be an issue. Personally, I like to use ethernet...

I guess that depends on how modern you're looking at. With Nvidia, for example, you have to go back to the GTX 900 series to get XP drivers, which I wouldn't call overly modern at this point. Still...

The first issue is that modern hardware isn't supported by XP. Next up is that simply transferring a drive with Windows from one machine to another isn't going to work with such big changes in...

Have you tried logging out, clearing the browser cache and cookies, and logging back in?

I have no issue staying logged in, and the last time I did so there weren't any issues with the password field.

These days normal usually refers to the 16:9 aspect ratio that most monitors use, for better or worse (worse in my opinion). You're more likely to find a 16:10 aspect ratio monitor, which are more...

The boxed edition only saves you from downloading the locally installed sim application and generic offline scenery. As the streamed scenery is many, many times too large to be sold on disc, they...

Yes, you can reinstall the digital edition as many times as you like (and have the bandwidth for).

When installing the sim did you specify your own directory for the Packages the first time you...

They do actually give bandwidth recommendations in the system requirements. 5 Mb/s is the minimum, 20 Mb/s is recommended and 50 Mb/s (or higher) is ideal.

If you have FSX Steam Edition, the beta release has re-enabled real world weather.

The more that comes out, the worse it looks for Boeing. And the FAA too.

Training was a factor, but the root problem was sticking newer and larger engines onto an airframe not well suited to them. The engines changed the flight characteristics, which should have meant...

Have you tried any other games or stress testing applications to see if they crash? The Unigine Heaven benchmark, or one of their other ones, running for a couple hours would be a good test. 3DMark...

Technically in Windows the file name includes the full path to the file, as well as the name of the file itself. This is why deeper folder hierarchies and long folder names will trigger this error.
