Stuck Decompressing Packages in MSFS2020 - Fix

Postby sonjamichelle » 18 May 2021 22:45

I tried for nearly 48 hours to get the usa points of interest to download. I even started the DL before I went to sleep las night, woke up, still stuck.

I tried, deleting the rolling cache and a few of the other “canned responses”,

HERE IS WHAT FINALLY WORKED (For others who may face the same issue.)

I cleaned out the community folder. Then I went into ./Official/Store.

There I found about 5 or 6 usa-points-of-interest files. In no folder, just the main. I deleted those. Rebooted, restarted and retried the DL. SO FAR it seems to be working.

I’m not sure if it was the Community clean out or deleting the files in the ./Official/Store folder.

Anyhow if you face the same issue with a package and have tried all the canned responses, give this one a whack and see what happens.
