One of your add-ons has an issue if that happens. Probably a livery. Did you try to remove liveries from your community folder and then trying again? It happened to me previously.

I had the same problem. @Severeeno You are right - it was caused by a broken livery. Now, I have to check every livery after another to find it. What a waste of time. Oh, how I wish there was somekind of option to show incompatible mods/addons.

I have the same issue. However, I am not like @airjuneau that lucky. I still cannot load into the game even got every item in the “community” folder deleted.

Deleted or uninstalled? … if only deleted you may need to repair your registry.

This issue in your screenie is totally something else and directly related to the sim not launching.

I am, however, talking here about the forever loading of the content manager once you have already fired up your sim.

I will try removing the liveries first all at once and follow the suggestions shared above by fellow simmers.

If removing liveries haven’t solved the issue I’ll try looking into the scenery mods.

My bad…Thanks for your kindly help tho. @sarpouli

I’ve tried deleting all the liveries, scenery and even the FWB A320N. However, still cannot launch the sim.

Not sure what reasons cause it like this…

did you also try logging out of and back into xbox app ?

I can logging in and out in the xbox app
if you meaning this one

not that web client, I mean the xbox application on your system.

go to searchbox in the taskbar, type in xbox app, and run it, then log off and on again.

fire up the sim and see if it works.

Hello guys ,
I have exactly the same issue !

I have installed in my community folder a total of 1338 Airport’s , Sceneries , Planes ( Repaints ) , Freeware and payware Mods ! None of them had any issue !

Yesterday i bought and Installed from Aerosoft three Airports ( Komodo , Dsky - Boa Vista and Homasim Ahvaz ) . The installation went fine using Aerosoft’s One Application !

However when i flew in any of the three airports , and after finishing my flight , i pressed Esc to return to the main menu and It got Stucked for ever !
I had to press Alt+Ctrl+Del. to End the game !! This happenned in all three of the Airports.

I tried again and again to Uninstall and Reinstall them , but without any success !
I then tried to Load my Content Manager and i couldn’t ! It got stucked !!

Someone from Aerosoft replied that the problem most probably is the LOD !
I tried different settings and i managed successfully to End the flight and Return to the Main menu .
I was still Unable to Load my Content Manager !!!

Any help to solve this issue will be much appreciated .

I give up; hangs forever on bootup. Microsoft, get your act together and fix your stuff before releasing it.
Were just paying beta testers …

The good news is that I now can successfully load in the sim after a full restore of the sim itself.
Maybe you guys can try, I know it takes a super long time tho. But still better than getting bugged.

it’s pretty cumbersome to get away with the masobo bugs caused by third party stuff like this one, because masobo still have virtually no detailed reporting manner as to why a bug befalls you.

here we have to give it a try by deactivating mods one by one to find out which mod really causes you the bummer.

for example, it took masobo more than one year to create a detailed BuilderLogError.txt to specifically indicate why it fails to open some of the files, which came with the latest patch SU:6.

You really expect MS/Asobo to test with every last little mod that’s out there? … Not going to happen when most of those thousands of mods were made for FSX.

No, of course not and that’s not their job, it’s, however, their job to report the user from where exactly such glitches stem, that’s exactly what I mean in my previous post.

If you’re on Xbox XS sometimes it takes longer than usual (depending on the available space) if it happens occasionally:

  1. Make sure your Xbox is well ventilated and not over heating.

  2. Make sure the Console and game are updated to the most recent versions.

  3. Make sure to quit other games.

  4. If this continues, try to restart the app, sometimes it’s prudent to have some very minor bugs.

Enjoy the game!

While I’m sure that’s possible I’m also sure it would affect performance for all including those that don’t have broken mods in their community folder.

Take a tip from me. Rename your Community folder and create an empty Community folder next to it. Now move whatever mods you need for your trip from the old to the new and just use those, if they are ok you can leave them there and repeat this procedure for your next trip. Sooner or later you are bound to happen across the problematic mod(s) which you can then either update or expunge from your system completely.

as I stated, at the very top, it’s pc.
suspicious, some libraries may cause it, BTW.
I’ll look into it even further.
and report back guys.
thanks for all the thoughts and suggestions.
