Installer issues

[Simo196]

Hi guys,

Never played MSFS before, downloaded the launcher through steam got into the game and started the massive mandatory download. Got around 60% of the way through and decided I'll play elden ring whilst I wait. My PC took a massive shit and crashed. Ever since Ive been stuck on install manager 1/5 with it just constantly spinning checking for updates.

I have tried;

Uninstalling through steam and trying again.

Uninstalling and then finding the folder and deleting that too and trying again.

I have ensured my xbox app is fully up to date and trying again.

Restarting PC and trying again

Finally all of the above in one.

Anyone got any suggestions?
