daspinall Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 are you trying to install it from steam as a new installation?..... if that is the case you need to point the installation to one of your drives, by default it would be the C drive.... but you can point it to another drive if you like.... then it will take around 4 hours to install......

tiger1962 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Hi,how do one install MFS 2020 downloaded content onto MFS 2020 on the Steam platform Unzip the content, then move the content folder to your Community folder here: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community If you can't find the path above, the Community folder may be also located here: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community Tim Wright "The older I get, the better I was..."

longbreak754 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Hi, By default Steam is installed at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\ The actual contents of the games are stored at C:\Program Files\Steam (x86)\SteamApps\Common\ The structure of the folder will then follow that as set by the game producer and, in the case of FSX, this is where you will find the relevant folders...
