RESOLVED: Flight Simulator won't launch, uninstall or reinstall

After trying everything else, I launched the Xbox app and I was able to download and reinstall Flight Simulator from there.

So about 4 weeks ago my power supply and motherboard both stopped working. I’ve installed a brand new power supply and a brand new motherboard. Every else on my pc is working fine, but Flight Simulator won’t run. At first it was saying that I wasn’t signed into the Microsoft Store. But even after I’ve signed in, I still can’t launch Flight Simulator.

I’ve tried installing and reinstalling the sim, but after re-downloading it from the store, I click on “Play” and nothing happens. The new motherboard is same brand and model as the one I had before. My system specs are listed below. Flight Simulator always ran without problems before I had to replace my power supply and motherboard. Can anyone please help me figure out what’s wrong?

SPECS:
AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16-Core Processor - 3.49 GHz
128 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080
GIGABYTE X570 AORUS ELITE WIFI Motherboard

Regards,
Jaime

Hi there, Have you tried to reset MS Store, Using the WSreset.exe?.. I do believe that’s the command that you use to reset the MS Store…BTW what size wattage is your new power supply?
