    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.

My "craptop" has been on 21H1 for some time now. But when I decided to bring my game rig up from 2004, the update kept failing, time after time. I tried several things I found online, but none of them worked. Then yesterday I came home from work and my rig was pending a restart for updates. I decided to see what they were, and was shocked to find that 21H1 had finally downloaded and was waiting to install! It took a while - even for this fast machine, but it went smoothly. I just got done with a (very) quick hop in the TBM from PHJR to PHNL just to see what it would look like, and it was quite nice. I think the lowest framerate I saw the entire time was 29. It still does some odd things like not starting the screensaver sometimes, but I'll live with that. Besides, a restart always fixes that. Just reboot and walk away, then about five and a half minutes later, the Matrix code is dripping down my screens. Now I'm looking forward to doing some real flying tomorrow.
 
Had a similar problem with 21H. Tried 3 times to download it over the period of a week. Then gave up....... but left my PC on. Surprise surprise.... the next morning it had downloaded all by itself !!! Windowzzzzzz.....
 
Win/MSFS

Hi , after last update from Microsoft/Windows mine MSFS did not start , until i logout / login the X-box account :) :mixed-smiley-010:
 
I had to re-install all MS software (MS Shop, Xbox and MSFS) before it worked again. Having said that, my last update was from September last year.......
 
Just like MSFS, Windows 10 is something that you want to keep up to date. If only for security reasons. And us flightsimmers, we have more reasons! ;)

My system didn´t notice that upgrade even when I looked for it. So, used the update assistant by Microsoft everything went smoothly and no problems with MSFS

Completely agreed.
My Windows 10 showed 21H1 as an "optional" update for months, until a day (about 1 month ago) it decided it was time to download and install itself, which was quick and smooth (more than I had imagined).
It did not affect MSFS at all.
