I have a i9 5.Ghz with 32Gb Ram, Windows 10 Pro, Nvidia RTX2080Ti and even when I put the graphics on low as recommended with Nvidia Experience the game crashes with error  Critical Process Died!

I have benched my video card and all Games run perfect and high settings and never crash.

Understanding that this game has to render many objects in any given scene which is understandable however when I cannot run even at a low settings is not exceptable please get me touch of support to get a refund of this game please. I purchased the most expensive opition.

Most disapointed

    I have the exact same issue. I have a Ryzen 7 3700 X (stock), 32 GB RAM, Radeon RX 5700 XT (slightly undervolted). Sometimes I can play for 10 minutes, sometimes 40 minutes then all of a a sudden green screen on the screen with HDMI then PC reboots. I monitor the temps and they are normal, GPU idling at 60-65 C, CPU at 55-60 C.

    No other game or app is doing this. I can play hours of Division 2, F1 2019, Gears 5 and so on. MSFS is the only game that is crashing my PC. I've just spend a lot of money upgrading to this new setup but cannot enjoy the sim cause I know it will crash.

    I've also tried everything from increasing the virtual memory, deleting logitech software, running the GPU at default, disabling v-sync, re-installing the game and so on but nothing seems to work. 

    Is someone at ASOBO or MS reading this? I hope they will so that this issue is getting sorted out!

    Your not the only one, My machine is somewhat similar, and it crashes all the time to the desktop, sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes after 45 minutes, sometimes immediately. I've done all their steps and still persists. Added 16 gigs of VM, clean re-install of nvidia drivers, re-installed V++ , disabled MSI afterburner, blah blah blah, they want everyone to jump through loopholes to change their PC to match their bad coding. ONLY game that crashes to desktop.  

    Same ive tried everything. Even got a refund from microsoft just to buy a steam copy and still the same thing my pc more than exceeds the requirements of the game ive spent countless hours (over 8 hours) of troubleshooting just to have the game crash on loading a flight every time i even bought a $200 joystick and throttle for this game and it all went to waste im beyond disappointed and pretty angry about this i work all day and want to come home and enjoy a game i spent money on and its not even playable Absolute bullsh*t

    I think what you say in your last paragraph is the exact probelm. They really need to sort this, but I sense they really don’t care, as long as the majority are playing succesfully the rest of us are just a small noise in the backgroud. I did pay for the full and game have requested a refund through the EU’s disputes process.
