That appears to have fixed it \o/

This looks like great news - just updating here also :slight_smile:

Yes, loads straight in to the sim now, not been through all the menu’s, but I’ve lost some of my settings.

I can also confirm it’s fixed! Hooray!

Many thanks to the teams involved in rectifying this, and also thanks to everyone submitting reports.

Just had a normal start and all the profile & achievements, settings are all intact.

Well done MS for fixing it and well done to everyone posting useful bug reports.

I can confirm that the issue has been resolved on my end.

It’s taking a ton of time for the package to install in MS Store, but I’m sure that once I get it installed we’ll be back in business. Sometimes being a squeaky wheel works!

Thanks @TenPatrol for taking all the time to give step by step instruction for both the workaround and restoring back. You are my hero :+1:.

Also I have to acknowledge MS to get this fixed quickly! A bit unfortunate that this happen over the weekend though.

Some in-game achivements are remains lost, some statistics remains at 0.

NOT ALL WAS RESTORED after the Gaming Service fix.
:frowning_face:

Yah issue like this is scary, annoying and unfortunate. That’s why once I saw the setup screen I closed MSFS immediately to avoid messing it up further.

Can confirm at least here, that update 2.50.200001.0 to Gaming Services has fixed the issue for me.
It did save my flights during the time the bugged GS was out, but not so lucky as it has reset progress towards at least 2 achievements.

Confirmed working here also :+1:

You’re welcome :slight_smile:
