If your C: drive is small, you can install the official packages (more or less 100GB depending on your version) and the community packages on any drive of your choice (for instance the D: drive). Once you launch the sim for the first time, you'll have the choice to select the Install Packages Path. To avoid issues down the line, we recommend keeping the launcher on the drive set by default with all your other Windows 10 apps and Steam games. Steam version C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimulator

Microsoft store version C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe The Microsoft Flight Simulator launcher (Approx 1.3GB) will install in the default games and apps installation folder


When installing Microsoft Flight Simulator you will first install the launcher/app that contains the core content, then download the packages, including the additional content and marketplace purchases.
