Compatibility
MS Store version
Did you install MSFS a long ago? You sim might be installed the old (legacy) way.
Stripr REQUIRES a "modern" MS Store installation.
All newer MS Store purchases place core games files (including FlightSimulator.exe) outside of a previously encrypted ecosystem. Let's call these "modern" installs. This change happened back with the introduction of the Xbox app into our ecosystem.
You CAN convert from a "legacy" install to "modern" by following the steps bellow. We want to emphasize that Microsoft itself encourages this transition, as it's the new norm.
We understand that change can be unsettling and respect your comfort level. If you find yourself uncomfortable with this particular change, please refrain from purchasing Stripr at this time.
If you have access to your FlightSimulator executable and the files around it, Your install is compatible with Stripr.
