Did you get a system error message in the Event Viewer at the same time, not just an application message?
Hello,
I have been getting fairly constant CTD when I select “Restart Flight”, occasional CTD when selecting “Return to Main Menu” which is after a flight is complete (point A to B with the “credits”), and occasional CTD during the middle of flights. I’ve tried everything i could find on the internet to fix, but haven’t had any luck, even after re-installing the game.
My setup is modest, but is above the minimum they list on the website.
Asus ROG GU501GM
I7-8750H @ 2.2GHz, 2208MHz, 6 Core
Nvidia GTX 1060
16GB RAM
Anybody else experience this?
Thanks!
Not that I have noticed.

I’m finding I’m getting a lot of CTD after huge flights. I’ve done many 10hr+ flights only for it to crash anywhere between 2mins from landing to 1hr from landing - almost always. It almost never crashes during the flight or on take off. I’ve limited my FPS to 30 in the nVidia control panel to rule out my GPU being stressed (Running a GTX1080Ti), also running the latest nvidia drivers. My CPU is running cool at around 60 degrees and only 40% utiised (i7 8700K). I don’t believe its my system as it’s rock solid during other intensive games or when I’m stressing it out in other applications (mostly running multiple VMs at the same time for work testing).
Is this a known bug as I can reproduce it almost every time? I’ve had so many flights/flight hours not be recorded due to this issue 
it’s starting to get really frustrating now as all the time I’ve put in isn’t counting towards achievements.
The event log just has a generic error:

Custom flights are crashing when hitting the fly button. Scenarios are at least launching. Crash after 1 to 10 minutes. I´ll come back in 6 months. This is a waste of time.
That says it all. This game is in alpha phase.
I don’t even care about the autopilot bugs, etc at the moment as I can work around them for the most part. But the CTD’s are infuriating when I’ve spend 10+hrs on a flight only for it to crash so close to landing.
I’m doing a full re-install at the moment, don’t have much hope but worth trying… 40/95GB done…

I have good results by throtteling back my GTX2080Super to 85% , switching off the first two processors of my I9 and keeping AI Traffic at 0 (zero). Live traffic is not a problem but AI traffic at only 5% causes CTD’s.
Here is my most recent CTD.

I have exactly the same problem at the end of flights, challenges seem worse and if i change weather in mid flight now… bang crash again.
Same issue here, I followed every step of the troubleshooting guides and nothing solved the problem. Dxdiag found no problem. I hope they’re working on our problem even if it isn’t listed in the “known issues”. I have to say I’m really disappointed.
The reason i uninstalled and reinstalled Xplane. Im done

Apparently many of us have the same problem. I think all of us contacted support through zendesk. I’m disappointed that we don’t have a response from them, at least telling us that our issue is being addressed and that they are working on it.
I contacted support and they told me it’s supposed to be fixed with the update, I didn’t have any CTD since I updated MSFS 2020.
I had this CTD when flying over big cities like New York before the update, will do some testing to see if it’s really fixed for me.
Unfortunately I installed the update but the problem remains the same. If the update fixed your issues, great !!! Enjoy your flights !
After the update I am still getting CTD at random points, here is some from event viewer
The program FlightSimulator.exe version 1.7.14.0 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.

CTD’s are not even in their next patch list. what do you except ?
all my crashes there with that cod too, and i have not use dep, antivirus and uac, all disabled… and this code not about admin right access but access to files, thread, handle, and other things like that, what most of time drop to ram and can not reading with bad coding or and bad hardware
So ive tried many things to replicate my previous CTD and nada even increased the render scaling to 150%, frames were awful but no ctd, flew over NY frames dropping below 15fps whilst unplayable still no CTD.
All ive done is update to latest Windows 10 2004, page file update, this was before the new patch. This is also on boost clocks as its a 5700 with an xt bios flash, therefore my clocks are 2000mhz with 1820 ram clocks, also check that ms in task manager is set to affinity on the 0 core as its now using all threads.
