    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

hey all, i went to install the update,then msfs crashed and i got a message that i need an app to open the microsoft store link.
doesnt tell me what app i need though? yall know? thank you

i made a new post to change the headline, please help. i havent any idea of what app i need. and i didnt say, when i first started MSFS, i got a windows defender message saying that 'some content is being blocked'.. i then told it to allow all. have i been hacked?

should i reinstall? if i do, can i install over what i have now? or do i need to delete everything ive added first?
 
The only app that should be needed is the Store app. You can try opening that and going your Library (lower left corner), then clicking the update button. That will install the new core files. Once that's done, then launching the sim should go straight to the update download.
 
It's probably referring to the Xbox app, you can download it from the Microsoft store in windows, don't worry its free.

I have no idea what the windows defender message was about, it may be unrelated to the update but if you click on the windows security icon in the task bar (looks like a shield with a tick on it) then seeing as you allowed it click on allowed threats bellow the Quick scan button you should be able to get more info on it.
