Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 (MFS 24) Download Button Not Showing Up How to fix

Many players had thought that they would soar the skies with Microsoft Flight Simulator 24, but so far, that has not been the case. If you clicked on this guide, it is clear that you bought your copy of the game, most likely on Steam, and now you are not able to download it. For some reason, the download button is not showing up. Well, don’t worry; here we are with some potential fixes.

It has come to our notice that people who bought Microsoft Flight Simulator 24 are not able to load into the game. For some, the cursor itself disappears. All in all, the release has not been what the devs might have hoped for, and they have their hands full with a lot of issues and errors to deal with. That being said, what about the issue of the download not showing up? Keep reading to find out.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 (MFS 24) Download Button Not Showing Up How to fix

If you didn’t see the download button earlier, it’s possible you checked before the game’s full release. Since Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has now been out for a couple of days, the download button should be available. If it’s been a while since you last checked, try looking again—it might now be visible. However, if the button is still missing, here are some possible workarounds that might help resolve the issue.

Basic Restarts

Keeping things simple, here is a possible workaround that has worked for many affected players. So, the fix is to restart Steam! This refreshes your Steam client and allows it to detect the game’s availability, making the download button visible. If just restarting Steam does not work, go ahead and reboot your entire system. While doing so, also check up on your internet and make sure the speed and stability are there to download.

Try some more restarts 

For some players, the restart workaround needed to be repeated a few times to work. If the download button doesn’t appear immediately after the first restart, try restarting Steam again—it took 1-2 restarts for some users to see the button appear. Be patient and persistent, as this method has proven effective for many.

Force play

If you don’t want to restart, here is a workaround that might help. So, sometimes, even without restarting, you can click “Play” on the Microsoft Store website if you’ve already purchased the game. This could trigger the download or activation of the game in your library, even if you initially see an error message stating the game hasn’t launched yet.

Add as favorite

Another potential solution is to look through your game library list and add MFS 2024 to your favorites list. All you have to do is open up Steam, locate Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, right-click on it, and select “Add to Favourites.” This can make the game easier to spot and sometimes helps refresh its status in your library, potentially allowing you to download it.

Microsoft Store Fix

For those who purchased Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 via the Microsoft Store, some users have reported issues with the store not functioning properly. This appears to be a common problem. One potential fix is to download and install the latest Windows App SDK, as suggested in user threads discussing similar issues. This can help resolve store-related glitches and allow the game to download correctly.

We hope one of these workarounds came in handy and you were able to download the game. Now, don’t forget to visit DigiStatement daily for gaming guides and news like this. Also, click here for guides on Farming Simulator 25, another newly released sim game.
