V1.17.3.0 Requesting Reinstall after 8 days

SOH-CM-2023
After 8 days of successful use of MSFS following install of v1.17.3.0, I'm getting a request to install again. Anyone else experiencing this? Why would this occur? Did MS detect a problem with my install then want to fix it? I'm holding off reinstalling pending comments. Thanks.
 
Same thing happened to me. I let it reinstall. It was less than 500 mb and only took a few seconds. After that everything worked fine. I did not have to reinstall the Scandinavian scernery.
 
I got that too but it was only a few kilobytes.
Sometimes when there's a small patch after an update they don't bother updating the changelog screen for some reason.
don't worry about it, I don't know what it changed but it was a non event for me.
 
Apparently the update was to install the Aviator liveries which were somehow not included in the main update.
 
There are also some new effect files - possibly in preparation for the upcoming DX12 and particle effects.
