Fantastic.. I’m clearing my community folder and getting the download started now.
Also, a DX12 update will be out next month too:

I was going to head out but think I'll wait and see this updated first; almost at 7GB downloaded of the 9 now!

Bugger, was hoping to fly shortly. On my 27mbit connection that's now a fly later on lol.

Oft - 19GB Download to update all the content now I'm in (Premium Deluxe Edition)
So GOTY stuff, DX12 and Reno all land at the same time with SU7 next month - amazing. Good that despite the delay to the Top Gun movie they are still releasing the hornet anyway and will just save the full DLC for later.
Looking forward to reno, I think it'll be a blast.
Stunningly detailed models:
Microsoft Flight Simulator Announces Reno Air Races Release Date - Xbox Wire
Two price points for Reno DLC - $20 and $60

Try stopping gaming services and restarting. Also do a proper shutdown rather than reboot (hold shift while clicking shut down).
I didn’t have any issues with it this time but previously when I got stuck in the update needed, no update in store loop that was the only fix.
Alternatively try checking using the Xbox app rather than windows store (although store worked for me).

Again?! Any ideas? I've tried rebooting.
Launch the XBox app, select the 'My Collection' button > Manage Installs > Update All (Windows 11).

Touch wood seems to have updated ok; not noticing too much different although have turned LOD up to 400!
I've done the same. How has it impacted your performance?

Not noticed too much to be honest; going to give it a go flying from Heathrow
I do like this concept where a game comes out but is then continually worked upon by the devs to upgrade it and keep it relevant. DCS and Il-2 are the same and despite them being ‘very old’ games they are both (well DCS far more!) cutting edge in terms of their graphics and performance.
I wonder why they can't do updates without affecting the community folder, everybody seems to rename or move the folder and then replace it back again, so there can't be anything in the update that is needed there because it gets deleted.
They obviously know about it because in a link in one of the previous posts Microsoft say to move the contents before updating, so what's the point of them updating it in the first place
