WU Nordics Installation remains pending

Hello,
WU nordics has the label “installed” and has also the label (right field) “installation is available” !!!. I selected it to begin this installation and I got the message “pending”. In the corresponding field there is mention of a decompression for some files but there is no indication that something was going on. I’m obliged to cancel the process and to go back to the main menu.

Going back again to desktop does not work and I have to quit msfs using the task manager. I guess it is because msfs was continuing the installation.
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards

Hello @SixtyBrake53742,

Your topic has been moved to Tech Talk a subcategory of General Discussion & Community Support. The General Discussion category is meant for discussions that fall outside our other sub-categories.

Please check out these other categories for your future posts:

  • Aircraft
    is where you discuss current or future planes coming to MSFS as well as assistance with liveries.
  • World
    is where you discuss scenery, airports, and weather.
  • Aviate, Navigate, Communicate
    is where you ask for help with flying.
  • Tech Talk
    is where you discuss installation, graphics, drivers, performance, CTDs, peripherals, and hardware.
  • Menus & Activities
    is where you discuss activities (landing challenges, bush trips, etc), plus anything accessed by the menus including the Marketplace, settings, logbook, cameras, etc.

I had problem with this Nordic update too. Check in your /Official folder (or the OneStore for MSFS store version) if there is a .part file (will be below all the folders of the installed stuff). If so delete it with the game closed, then run again and try again. It will work eventually!

Yesterday evening I had exactly the same problem. Very slow download run into windows 11 crash. This morning WU nordics run smooth and finished well. New Sim works fine!

Hello,
Thank you for the idea. In Official folder there was a fspatch file (microsoft-nordic-point-of-interest-1.8.7.fspatch of 231 MB) and a folder (.fscontent of 10 bytes). I deleted both and launched again msfs. I was then proposed to update WU nordics (and not to install). Everything was OK after this update.
Thank you again.
Best regards
