I just updated to MSFS version 1.17.3.0 earlier this morning.

Actually, I didn’t realize it had been updated because MSFS ran thru the update check to the Main Menu on its first run.  If there wasn’t a note about the World Update V in the MarketPlace, I would have missed it in the first place.

As usual, I cleared the Community Folder before proceeding to update. But no difference to what the simulator did in the past, the update process didn’t get thru in one shot. It stopped at 55%. I needed to quit and restart the game to finish the download.

The same things happened on my another MSFS install.

Anyway, the remaining Nordics update from the MarketPlace is smooth without any problem.

Frankly, to me, the overall process has improved a lot because the last time I had to restart the game three times in order to update to 1.16.2.0.  ;)
