MSFS 2020 load time with "checking for updates"

The mods have confirmed the issue and stated they will escalate to MS internally if it continues for very long.

Is that in this thread? Could you link to it?

This happened 2 or 3 weeks ago same exact issue and same day of the week. You’d think they’d have the fix sorted out. It’s gotta be something to do with server capacity as this weekends are the busiest. Regardless it’s pathetic these issues occur when 2024 is released. Get it together Microsoft/ asobo.

Here you go:

Not with that attitude they won’t :joy:

East Coast servers having issues as well. Blame it on the snow.

The last time same issue occurred it was fixed by mid afternoon eastern time but that should have been the end of it. No excuse to be facing the same problem weeks later. I Don’t even want to load 2024 cus it looks like fsx half the time. Ridiculous really
