I am having a strange issue where MSFS crashes immediately after the “press any key to start” screen. Anyone else have this issue?
I apologize for not seeing this sooner. Are you on XBox or PC? If it is XBox, then it is likely caused by a corrupted cloud save file. To delete your cloud save, follow these steps:
Please be warned that deleting the Cloud Save will wipe your logbook permanently and reset some of your settings such as keybindings and peripherals profiles. You will not lose the achievements already unlocked on this profile but progression towards achievements and the logbook information cannot be recovered.
If you are not using XBox, then it would be better to submit a support request to us at:

Yes, had the same issue. Deleted cloud data, and it fixed the issue.

Open a command prompt with admin rights…
Go through each of the following steps one at a time. Copy each line, one at a time , paste it into the Dos window (crtl + V) and press return
and it will then run. Wait until each runs and finishes before you move on to the next one.
When you are completely finished, Restart your computer and then try to see in MS2020 will start and run properly
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /checkhealth
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /scanhealth
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth
sfc /scannow
Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore
Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
RESTART your computer as the last step. Then go for a test flight.
