Can't boot game completly

It gets to Quit to Desktop. I have to do this 10 or 12 times (takes about 10 min each time) then come back in about 6-8 hours and it works.

Happening still…

Do you have addons in your community folder, if so have you tried with it empty?

No addons…

Is this during an installation, or just a normal start?
If in a normal start, where in the start up does the issue occur?

Normal start. This morning I tried it more that 10 times and it started after 2 hours.

If you have a good internet connection, I’d consider doing a reinstall of the sim.
Something is really wrong there.

This is a new install.

I would reinstall it, it shouldn’t take much time.
There is no guarantee it will solve the issue, but it is no good the way it is.

I you decide to go this way, uninstall from Windows start menu, delete all left over folders and restart PC.
Install sim and see if that helps.

3 hours ago I thought I would try a setting ATC Enforce Flight Plan like a guy in the forum was suggesting.
I’ve been stuck at Quit to Desktop.
Rebooted 3 or 4 times.
Uninstalled and reinstalled
After 3.25 hrs it finally let me in.
