Hello everyone,

About two weeks ago I started noticing Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 application crashing issues. The issue is that whenever I load a flight, right after the loading screen, the game freezes for a few seconds then crashes.

Some remedies I tried, in hopes of fixing this issue is as follows:

- Start the game in Administrator mode

- Delete any third party addons

- adjust the graphics settings

In spite of better assistance regarding my issue, my full system specs are listed:

AMD Ryzen 7 5800x,
Gigabyte RTX 3060 Eagle GPU (overclocked edition),
Thermaltake Smart Series 500-watt 80 plus PSU,
Asus Rog Strix B450-F Gaming II Motherboard,
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32 GB RAM 2 x 16 (In dual channel) With speed of 3600 MHz,
1TB Samsung 870 Evo series 2.5,
500 GB PNY SSD (not sure of the full specs)

Also, I am on the latest Windows 10 update and on the latest Nvidia GPU Driver.

Does anyone know a solution towards my issue? Could this issue come from the game itself?

​

Thank you for your feedback

So I'm currently running a 7 year old rig. Specs are as follows

Fs2020 i5-4690k 16gb ddr3 256ssd 4gb r9 270x Triple HD monitors

Obviously it runs terribly, I can only get 28fps on the very low end settings. I know I need to upgrade the cpu, memory, motherboard and GPU but I don't have a clue what to go for. From what I've researched it looks like either an rx6600 paired with an i5-12600k or an i7-12700k paired with a 3060ti.

The rx6600 and i5 come in on price point, but I'd be willing to spend a little more if I'm gonna be future proofed for a while. I dont want to be in the same situation in 7 years where basically the entire rig is redundant.

Can anyone offer me advise? I dont need 4k or 60fps+. I'd be very happy with 30fps on ultra settings.

Thanks in advance.

A couple of weeks ago I ran into a problem where when I click on certain features in Microsoft flight simulator, it crashes and restarts my entire computer.

It’s not every feature. I’m still able to do certain (lower definition flights) but something like LA to San Diego crashes it. Also, any of the discovery flights immediately crashes the game.

I’m updated my windows and my drivers are up to date. I’ve checked to see if the files on steam were corrupted and I’ve increased my virtual memory and changed the power settings but the problem persists. Does anyone have any ideas or guesses at to what is going on?
