gkvarga 2 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I knew I shouldn't have bought a third party addon. They always mess up Flight Simulator. Always have in the past and nothing has changed. Paid for and installed Simple Traffic. Now I cannot get into MSFS. I get a MSFS Mandatory Update required. I press OK, and game exits. Thanks. Now I can't use MSFS. Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmb 139 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 And who tells you Simple Traffic is reponsible for your issues? Did you try what the message states, i.e. update MSFS from the MS Store first? I have plenty of 3rd party addons and there are very rare cases where one messes up MSFS.

gkvarga 2 Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 Because as soon as I installed Simple Traffic I got this error. Immediately prior to installing I was able to use MSFS with no issues. I'm looking for a fix here not a snarky response. I can deduce what the culprit is, thanks.

pmb 139 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I would uninstall Simple Traffic, make the update in MS Store, make the remaining updates in Store/Content manager and try again with Simple Traffic. Today's MSFS update is said to be identical to the former hotfix which a lot of people (including me) had used together with ST. Although not required, I always rename my /Community folder before an update to see if potential issues are caused by 3rd party addons or the core simulator.

gkvarga 2 Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 Thank you for the assistance. Further digging and googling required me to install the Xbox app and update through there. It is now working. Did the update get pushed at the exact time that I made the Simple Traffic install? Within 30mins? Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted January 6, 2022 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 6, 2022 And next time simply read the message you got when starting MSFS and follow the given directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
