I purchased MSFS from Steam and Installed it on my E Drive (external SSD) After installing it I noticed MSFS files on my

C Drive ( C:\users\name\AppData\Roaming\MicrosoftFlight Simulator.

I MSFS files have also appeared om my D Drive (storage partition of my C Drive)
D:\MSFS 2020 App.Data\Community.

And My E Drive ( external SSD Drive)
E:\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020\ Community

I installed the extracted Zip file folder in My Community Folder on my D Drive. As I said , it shows up in my Content Manager, but as NOT INSTALLED ???

Any suggestions ?

So you have two community folders? Strange. The community folder you want is under the Packages directory. So both D and E is not the right place. Is there a Packages directory in the C drive path?

667

Yes there is a Package Folder in my C Drive directory, but it does not have a Community Folder. It is mostly various Microsoft Windows folders.

668

No, I mean C:\users\name\AppData\Roaming\MicrosoftFlightSimulator\Packages??

You’re looking for (
\Packages\Officlal). There should then also be a (
\Packages\Community)

I was flying it the other day, and there was this guy outside on the skid
 banging on the side of the helicopter yelling something about, “try the overhead switches now”

Yes , ,But No Community Folder

671

Is there an Official folder in Packages?

672

No ! Just the Microsoft Windows Files

673

Ok, then that is the wrong place also. I am not at my home computer right now so I can’t check where the correct directory is supposed to be. You can try searching the forum. I know that several people have written out how to find the Community folder. I just don’t know off the top of my head.

674

I have a Community Folder on MY E (external SSD Drive )

675

But it’s not in a Packages directory you said. And is there an Official directory there too?

From what you have said, it doesn’t sound like any of the paths you gave are the correct one.

676

Yes! it has a Community Folder and a Official folder on my E drive

677

You said E looked like E:\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020\Community?

678

E:\Microsoft FLight Simulator\ Community
Official
steamaps
MSFS shortcut
steam.dll

679

is there a folder called “fs_base” in the Official directory?

680

Yes ! Official\steam\fs-base

681

See that’s wrong. It should be Official\fs_base. no steam folder. You have a very unusual install

682

I also have MSFS from Steam and my folder structure is not this complicated

683

Any suggestions ?

684

How did you install MSFS? Did you do any kind of nonstandard install? Are you using links or something?
