Microsoft Flight Simulator
Microsoft launched its real-time flight simulator today, on 18th August 2020. This Asobo Studio developed video game gives you a first-hand experience at flying. The game analyzes maps and photogrammetries and simulates the earth. It creates realistic trees, water bodies, buildings, different types of land terrains, etc. All of these are depicted in 3D and higher resolution.
Why does the game look frozen when you start it?
If the Microsoft Flight Simulator looks frozen when you start it, worry not. The game does not have a problem and it is not just you that is experiencing this freeze. A number of Twitter users have reported the same. But why is this happening?
The game was highly anticipated since long before it released. Now that the game has finally released today, many video-game lovers are already downloading it. This downloading is taking place at bulk and at the same time, leading the game to slow down and taking forever to download. So, there’s nothing wrong with the game. It is just acting up because of the huge traffic.
What to do when you are not able to download or install this game?
It can be difficult to install the game when a lot of other downloads are already keeping the site’s servers busy. So, try closing the download and starting it again. Try this for 4-5 times, you might be able to download the game after all.
If you are still not able to download the game from the Microsoft site, you can make the game run as an administrator app. You can also try resetting the Microsoft Store cache to WSReset.exe or run the Windows Store App Trouble Shooter. You can also try deleting the site’s cache data and then force restart the Microsoft Store Installer. Also, make sure that you have disabled firewalls and anti-virus software while the download is going on.
