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

Why the *requirement* to install a 150+Gb game on the C: drive? A great many people (myself included) have installed small size NVMe SSDs as system disks (e.g. mine is 240Gb). I don't have the space to install on the C drive, given the room that Windows takes up...
Is this something to do with pathing to DRM or game certificates. If so, what needs to be done is for that to be fixed, not to suggest that you should only install the game on the C drive...

There is no requirement to install to the C: drive. While I have tried installing it to my C drive to see if that had anything to do with the crashing it does not and will fix nothing. Don't bother wasting your time with most of that post you are responding to. It's just the normal blanket statement from someone who has no idea what the issue is.
Add me to this list. I have the same problem you do. I have an HP Omen. It meets and exceeds the recommended requirements to run FS2020. I have done a ton of different things. I feel like if I do too much more, I'll do more damage than good. I hope a patch is about to be released. I think that is what it will take to fix all of this. Microsoft needs to put out a statement about this and let everyone know what we should expect
I too have a similar beast of a PC with pretty much the best parts I could buy as of last month. Not overclocking, no overlay running, just the sim. Crash to desktop happens almost everytime I Fly. Sometimes during flight and sometimes when moving between menus. I first noticed this when I was doing the tutorials and I would select "Next lesson" and CTD would happen 100% of the time so I started returing to the main menu instead. This worked for the Lessons part of the sim. Pretty dissapointed with the amount of crashes at this point. I hope there's an update soon.

Are you by chance using any CH product? I wanted to try my Thrustmaster HOTAS I just got for Xbox One and PC. I had the expectation that it was going to crash to desktop within 10 minutes but I did want to see how it felt at least. I just flew around 1.5 hours at least around tree top level mostly around MCO and Disney and never had a problem. Usually it crashes before I even get to International Drive. I had been using a Honeycomb yoke, CH Pedals and the CH throttle. With only just the thrust master, I actually turned the sim off on my terms for the first time since downloading it. It's just a thought. Not sure if I will continue to have it work smoothly or not.
