Just happened to me as they listed check integrity as a solution to CTD.
Yes, it’s a known problem, and a pretty absurd one.
Consolidate all the Steam Integrity posts and repost in Bugs. Then people get to vote on it, which is the only other way to get a serious bug on Asobo’s list besides a Zendesk ticket.
This is still a problem. Now I have to wait another 5 hours for download…why should verify files cause a new download?
Because MS controls the bulk of the download files, which is NOT hosted on Steam CDN. If Steam had the files, they would likely do a better job of file integrity checking. So all they can do is pass control back to MS. And MS’ integrity check is non-existent. The default and only behavior apparently is to redownload the whole smash.
Has anyone with Steam tried repairing MSFS through the Windows App interface? I should see if this is even available. That should not trigger a redownload.
