Hello,

I tried launching MSFS 2020 today on my PC but it crashes at the loading screen every time, regardless of safe mode or normal.

My drivers are up to date and my microsoft/xbox sign in details are correct.

Nvidia Geforce RTX 4070 Ti
Driver version 537.13
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor
31.89 GB RAM

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Gaming

    I had this problem suddenly today. All I did was to UNINSTALL MSFS from XBOX and reinstall it. It WORKED beautifully and I am enjoying MSFS again after a few swear words !!

    Same situation, tried all of the above, all drivers are up-to-date.

    The game launches, i click on an option (Training, etc), screen freezes for about 20 seconds or so, and full reboot occurs.

    Tried in-game safe mode, no difference.

    I installed both English (US and UK) and it worked after that!
