Yes I do.
This might help:
I am assuming you have installed the in game packages to their default location of: C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages where XXXX is your user name. If you have installed them elsewhere then the first step I am about to suggest will be a smaller folder to copy.
- Copy the folder LocalCache from C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe to a new temporary location on your computer, eg. c:\MSFStemp
(This step will prevent you having to download the massive 90gb or so download but must still be done) - Copy the folder Settings from C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe to the same new temporary location, eg c:\MSFStemp\
- In the start menu right click on the Microsoft Flight Simulator icon, select more then app settings
Scroll down to the two buttons Repair and Reset, press them each in turn. (Caution this will wipe your 94gb download-assuming it was in the default location- so make sure you have already copied the LocalCache folder above) - Browse to C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe and make sure there is nothing there now, i.e. empty folder.
Now copy back there the two folders from earlier, LocalCache and Settings. - IMPORTANT Disconnect your computer from the internet You must do this before running the game if you wish to reset these cloud based profiles
Once your computer is disconnected run the game. It will launch as if it was the first time you have run the game, i.e. you need to agree to EULA etc and go through the initial settings page. Complete the whole process as normal and the game should launch you to the main menu of the flight sim - Once on the main menu connect your computer to the internet. You should get the verifying access pop up within the game shortly thereafter.
Don’t skip this step: Select a random airport from the world map and start a flight. Once loaded in after the ‘fly now’ you can exit back to the main menu and close the flight sim down. - Restart the game with the internet ON
After you press the any key to start you will get prompted with a UI dialogue box titled “gaming UI”. It gives you the option to select two profiles a cloud based one (older) or this machine (newer and local). Select the local machine/newer and let the game load.
Fingers crossed your profile issues have been fixed.
Let me know if this worked.
UPDATE August 2021: I don’t think this method will work any longer, as an active internet connection seems to be a requirement to start MSFS
**UPDATE 12 November 2021- Please see this new guide for deleting MS Store PC cloud profile for MSFS: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/how-to-clear-cloud-based-profile-pc-ms-store-version-msfs/470560
