Two Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe directories

I’m getting so confused by the directory structure of this game.

My installation is via Microsoft Store using Gamepass and the .exe is on my D:/ drive as my C:/ is small and I leave this almost exclusively for my OS only.

I’ve found is have a Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe on both my D:/ and C:/ drive.

D:\WpSystem\S-1-5-21-1491874339-84261703-1975139594-1002\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe

C:\Users\andyt\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe

This causes me confusion when choosing the install path for updates, which one do I choose and also which one do I use for my community fold for mods?

The one on your D drive. Many of the items in the C drive will just be pointers to the D drive folders.

Thanks. I did have this suspicion, but wanted someone else to say what my mind felt was logical.
