World Update 8 results in "This app can't open" error

If you haven’t, I certainly would enter a support request.

Here are a couple more to try.

RESET THE MSStore INSTALLER

  • Bring up Task Manager (CTRL + SHIFT + ESCAPE)
  • Select the Services Tab
  • Find the Microsoft Store Installer
  • Right-click it and select Restart

and this:

  • Go to the default installation folder:

C:\Users\User_name\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache

  • Manually delete the files
  • Reboot your PC and try to install or update Microsoft Flight Simulator again.
