Hello,
Both MSFS are not running on C but on another disc H. After a big system crash I must reinstall W11. What is the correct procedure for reinstalling MSFS20 and MSFS24 ? What happens with the huge data already installed on H ? Do I have to start again from scratch ? Thank you very much for comments
Best regards
FS2024
MS Store
My data is installed on my K: drive.
Copy and save your data (in case you need it), Community folder, and
install FS2024 to your H: drive.
FS2020 should be the same. I don’t use it anymore.
For MSFS 2020, install the launcher like every game, but on the first launch you can select a new location for the Official and the Community folder by select a new path (so for exemple H:\MSFS2020). If there is already things there, it will check if the files are healthy.
On 2024, you need to actually install the game, go to the Marketplace, go to My Library and you have a settings icon on the top right and you will be able to move the packages into your actual packages folder (like H:\MSFS2024 for exemple)
Thank you for answering. My Microsoft account being the same I just have to launch the installation from the Microsoft Store and ask for installing on H:\ ?
Best regards
Yep exactly, the way you bought the sim don’t matter, it’s the same process
