I am on a cabled 1000/500mbit connection. Everything is checked, and speed test confirms my solid connection. Nothing else shows any problems with connection, except for MSFS mainly the content manager.

Many issues may be due to an outdated graphics card. Please state your Graphics Card Driver Manufacturer (NVIDIA, Intel, AMD) and Version (Learn how to find your current graphics card driver version):

MediaFire, (my cloud storage provider that I move gigabytes of data to and from), GitHub, aircraft download sites, O/S downloads for things like Linux images, etc., are almost always reasonably rapid.

Typical speeds of 60Mbps when my link is capable of 450Mbps. Sometimes it goes a bit faster and sometimes a lot slower. I have a lot of experience with detailed network tuning and spent quite a while investigating the problem live, even looking at the control flow on the https connection with Wireshark, and tried various network setting changes. My conclusion is that the local MS CDN end point in Australia was just serving the content very slowly.
I also tried using a VPN to connect into the CDN at different locations, a local connection made no difference but I was able to get 250-300Mbps connecting to the USA from Australia, while it was nighttime in USA. It was much slower when it was daytime.
I am sure my ISP is not shaping the traffic, I am with a specialist ISP.

It is not strictly reproducible as it appears to depend on the phases of the moon as well as the position of various constellations and planets. In other words, it seems to be completely independent of any efforts I exert to control it.

I have the same problem for a long time. It is caused by a broken mod in the community folder. My workaround is to rename the community folder everytime I want to access the content manager, load the sim, open the content manager, manage the content, close the sim and rename the folder again.

I tried the suggestions in that thread by renaming community folder. Then the content manager loaded as it should. But then the Nordic update always fails and is listed as partially installed.
My current version is 1.26.5.0

I had the same issue with WU 10, which I have not experienced before. I cleared out the community folder as usual before starting the update but during the process of updating a number of elements including the Nordic update but also the Maverick content and several bush trips and other content updates all showed up as failed to install or only partially installed.

Has anyone ever solved the problem of the MSFS Content Manager simply spinning when clicked, and not opening? I heard I should remove all mods from the Community folder. I removed most of them and it finally opened. I put them back in and it doesn't open. That's ridiculous! Is there a fix for this so that the mods I have can actually be checked for updates as well?

Mine takes several seconds for the spinning wheel to finish and open the CM. Have you waited enough?. Sometimes I go back to my profile and enter again in the CM and it finally loads up. Probably a bug, or caused by so many community addons installed?.

It is the servers. When you open Content Manager, the sim heads over to the servers to check that everything is up to date. Servers are playing up right now. Trust me. I had the same issue and I do not have anything in Community that is problematic. I have exited the sim as it is irritating me now.

It is definitely the content manager being fragile about something in the Community folder it doesn't like the look of. I am trying to trace the offending item myself, and it is likely to be a json file.

Edit. About the servers. It may well check them, but that isnt the root cause. Stalling over an add on that it doesn't like IS the cause. Many people have found just one offending item to be pruned out and then it loads. Put that item back in and it stalls again.

I will try to find the offender by spiralling in on it tonight. E.g. take the top ten out and see what happens. The offender will be in one half or the other. The divide the non-loading half into half again, five and five, and go again. I suspect the shipping traffic though as it is my most recent add on, so I will take that out first.

I have downloaded from flightsim.to, aircraft, unzip file and install inside community folder. Launch sim, go to content manager, shows aircraft name and not installed, press button which puts check mark next to it and thats where it comes to a stop, It shows item slected, the ESC Go Back button but no download or install button. What am i missing? Never had this problem before update, did something get turned off?

I agree that worked in the pass, i downloaded folder into community folder, but when i go to the World page, and click on the aircraft icon on the upper left corner the list of available aircraft do come up but not the aircraft that i just installing in the Community folder. Something is missing.

i dont get it, you get an aircraft from a site, whats there to download any further, nothing.
those installed ones can be chosen form the aircraft menu when preparing a flight.
this has never been changed.

The ContentManager is the run-time component which loads managed objects from the binary files produced by the design time content pipeline. It also manages the lifespan of the loaded objects, disposing the content manager will also dispose any assets which are themselves IDisposable.

You may need to change the transfer mode to Active for it to work, that's what i use... otherwise you should be getting an error message in the log, tell me what it says there and i'll try to help you further... it doesn't matter if you use wifi or wired, both works fine for me...

I freshly installed Aurora... 360 content manager provides a feature which uploads everything in the correct path and unlock DLCs too... Filezila does not provide such thing. is there any chance that Aurora gets SMB in future or, is 360 content manager going to be updated?

As it goes 360 Content Manager DOES support FTP and it DOES work with Aurora, you just need to change the login and password in Aurora settings to match FSD's and then 360CM will work. The only reason you need SMB in 360CM is if you want to view your xbox hard drive on your pc.

I'm using Content manager and a CSL DD. The initial steering is nice and heavy but mid corner when using more lock or all the slow speed corners the steering goes very light. It will go from say 8nm of force to about 2nm. I have tried the recommended settings.

I was off simracing for about 3 years now and been trying to get everything working back again. Drivers updated on CSL Elite xbox (using on pc thoguh) but i'm missing the on wheel settings. I only have SEN and FF. Dont have FOR, and the others, i can't remeber their names. Help!

I'm driving the Nordschleife in AC and for some reason there is no FFB in the center to about 20 deg left and right, also on high speed. Then the FFB kicks in and feels a bit rumbly when you "lean" the wheel into the FFB. It just feels unnatural.

I've reinstalled it and it feels really good 'I'm using the settings I had before I uninstallled.' However om finding that I'm not getting much feel when the wheel is in the central position. It's not until I start to turn that I get any feeling.

I have the 1080 sensitivity on the base and in game and have no inngamw filters on but it still feels a little bit lacking. I know FFB is subjective but does anyone have a base setting or decent feeling setup?

The recommended settings here for PC Assetto Corsa (CSL DD 8nm) weren't really doing it for me at all. Especially once I moved on to playing a bit of ACC and they were a world apart in terms of feedback strength.

ie: A 10-15 year old games don't know what a Direct Drive DD1, DD2 or CSL-DD, etc are because they weren't produced that far back, but a Clubsport Wheel v1, v2.5, CSL Elite where, so when you change it to a compatible mode, it will identify as a CSW v2.5 to the old game and it can work with that. It could also change it into PS4 or Xbox mode depending on motor model.

And question number two, three and four are: How and where activate "compatibility" mode? Are these settings only for the standard 5nm kit, or can i apply the same? And why can't i change the flipper function?

1) Not showing -BLI and -BRF as they are only for load cell brake pedals (When to vibrate motor on brake pedal and how hard you have to press the brake pedal) and also -SHO if for vibration motors in steering wheels that have them or it is just being cut off at the bottom of the device page.
