• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Make sure the BING data is on.

I tried uninstalling, and now it's complaining it can't contact the servers. So something is screwed up. I tried logging out rebooting and logging in, I changed my password, I installed the X-box app on my computer. I'm logging into my account just fine, but there is something blocking MSFS from installing, and I can't uninstall the whole package. I tried to repair the install, I tried resetting it. Off to Google....
 
So... It sounds like I've run into some "data cap" issue that they're aware of, I guess we all have some cap on data transfer, that's supposed to get reset every month, but they've found an issue where it's not getting reset... I'm running through the repair steps now.
 
Thanks for that link. I've started a Zendesk links list for things such as this. It's in the stickies section.
 
Oh, and @jimjones, thanks for the tip. Apparently, somewhere along the way, MSFS did turn off Bing data on me, and it was still off even after I successfully applied the latest update. Turning it back on brought back photogrammetry.
 
I finally got mine working. Had to redownload and install to default location. Luckily I recently installed new 1TB SSD as C:// drive.

Turns out my original download included 4 base scenery .bgls that were so corrupted that I can't delete them!?? I also can't overwrite them, so the entire folder structure is trapped. Anyway, the sim is working well for me now, in default form. Aircraft and scenery bought from the store are working fine. next is to try my ORBX scenery and Dino's Longeze, as well as IRIS' Jabiru.
