Slowhand, you are missing the point. Simply, we cannot help if you have mods installed. If you would like assistance solving the CTD,

What would you recommend we set the Virtual Memory Initial size & Maximum size? I have 32GB of RAM. Also, which drive to you set manually? The C drive or all drives?
Your target for total available between your physical ram and the virtual mem should exceed 32GB.
I would start at 4GB Min Virtual and then set Max at 32 - Physical Mem.
The C drive or all drives?
Pick whatever is your fastest drive as long as it doesnāt push drive usage over 75%.
An SSD is best case but a HDD is fine.
I am not a fan of using the root drive for virtual mem as it is just one more thing hammering the work horse.
I have 2 of the same M.2 SSDs. So should I tweak the virtual memory on the OS C drive or the D drive where FS is installed?
I would use D
Ok because this says Cā¦

Getting sick of crashes mid flight. I will try disabling AI traffic next time, but why should I have to? Fix your game Asobo.
This is to report the apparently same CTD signature after more than 1h of flight.

Was running little NavMap, SmartCars, FSUIPC7 at the same time.
After trying to restart MSFS, this time in flight at approximate crash position, it again occurred after a few seconds.
Before posting in the #Bugs-and-Issues categories, assure no mods or 3rd party add-ons are installed per the guidelines of this section.
The purpose of the #Bugs-and-Issues categories is to discuss issues that affect the base simulator (MSFS default content). Please do not discuss issues or report bugs with third-party addons, or modifications in this category.
If you believe your issue may be caused by a third-party addon/mod, empty your community folder, restart the simulator and try to reproduce the error.
All issues caused by, or involving third-party addons/mods should be reported to the third-party developer. All issues related to the core simulator (MSFS default content) can be formally reported through Zendesk.
I have been experiencing very frequent CTDs in the last week. Iāve exhausted all the steps included in the Zendesk troubleshooting but still no solution! I succeed in completing just one flight in ten! Iām really exhausted!
One thing I can recommend is when people experience CTDs to download and run OCCT. Regardless of overclocking etc - your bios settings/XMP/memory health can be the culprit.
After your computer survives 10 mins of OCCT without a crash you can be almost certain your HW is okay.
I found that Windows 10 are much less tolerant on mem overclocking than windows 7. I was running XMP2 profile for years on win7 with no errors whatsoever, but FS on windows 10 was crashing with the same config.
Ever since 1.12.13.0 its very rare that it will ever load for me. Very frustrating.
some users flight 8hours and more , and this means whole time full load. Ten minutes is not a reference value if you want to find out issues.
is the instable XMP profileā¦
ā¦ try that only, if realy searching āfunā like mentioned in point number 5 : reload whole game again
I know you have probably done this already, but, rather than rebuilding MSFS letās start with a cold restart of your system.
If encountering errors in a system that was previously stable the above list should be completed before any other troubleshooting.
As mentioned, Reset has worked for me every single time. If youāve had installation problems in the past (I have not) or a slow internet pipe (I do not) then Reset might not be the path, except as a last resort.
but you download the same files 
There is a chance that this helps because some others files are deleted while un-install which makes trouble. Possible number one might be the cache fileā¦
