CTD After Clicking Settings Tab

Hi all, first time posting here so apologies if the template is slightly weird. I’m currently experiencing a CTD that only specifically happens when I try to open the general settings tab in game.

I’ve already done a painstaking uninstall and reinstall thinking that it might make a difference but it hasn’t. Absolutely everything else works fine, and I can even change the graphics settings outside of the game via the nvidia control panel but I can’t access things like AI Aircraft amount etc.

I’m using the xbox pc version, and I’ve never had this problem before until I got a new pc. However, I hadn’t played in a while on my pc previous to the one I have now so I’m not sure if it would have happened on there too. I can load into flights no problem and fly with no problems too, but I can’t access the general settings either. Instant CTD as it tries to load the tab. Hope someone can help!

My specs are:
i5-10400F
Nvidia RTX 3070 Ultra
2x8GB 3000Mhz Ram
1TB SSD

to be sure.. have you installed English Language Pack US ?`

And/or can you have a look into windows event viewer and show us the error message ?

Hi, and welcome to the forums!

As MichaMMA suggests, please check you have English US language pack installed, as that seems to be what causes this issue, as detailed in these threads:

For future, I’d suggest searching the forums for other threads before creating one, as in a lot of cases solutions have already been found for common issues. You can use the search system by clicking on the magnifying glass on the top navbar. You can make use of the advanced search system by clicking the options link in the search box.

Thanks!
