After rebooting, the splash screen appeared the first several times I loaded the sim. However, today, I loaded the sim twice, and the splash screen did not appear.
I’m not using fastlaunch, and am using the Windows Store version.
And, I do have 21H1.
Hi,
I hope someone can help.
I click on flight sim and get the splash screen saying the game is loading. It then goes to a black screen and then crashes to desktop all the time. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and it does the same thing. I can’t get past it without it crashing. My computer is strong enough. I have updated windows also. The only files and folders I have are from the initial download from downloading MSFS from the Microsoft store. There is nothing in these folders at the moment as I believe all content will be downloaded into them when I reinstall by getting into the game . I have updated my Nvidia drivers too. I can’t think of anything else. It’s extremely frustrating. I play my sim on a Samsung tv. HD. I have tried changing screen resolution also but nothing.
I have
32gb Ram
Nvidia RTX 2060
Intel Core i5 9400F
1tb SSD
1tb HD
I hope someone can solve this for me.
Thanks
Tony
I get the splash screen however not able to run as admin anymore. anyone else facing this issue?until last night i was able to run as admin, however since this morning where i see the splash screen if i run without elevated access it opens but if i run it with elevated access then it doesnt seem to be i get the error saying i dont have permission to the specified path
Paste the entire path into your Winders folder and you’ll get there.
As of this morning I no longer get the splash screen. Rebooted PC and tried 3 more times, gone.
Except that there is NOTHING to indicate the program is starting up for the first 20 secs. If the progress bar popped up as soon as I clicked the link, I would agree with you. This is not a “does nothing” option it is merely a way to let the user know that the program is successfully starting. An acknowledgement of command.
Not showing up for me, I have the ms store, premium deluxe, windows 10
Splash screen showed up after SU4 install but it is missing on startup the following day.
There have been a couple different solutions so far that have worked for some.
I suggest disabling ALL background tasks and unplugging peripherals from USB for initial startup after install. This would include any A/V software. Once up and running re-enable the A/V but be sure to give MSFS permission/exemption in the A/V scan setup.
Here is a video of my screen https://drive.google.com/file/d/1egXt-rb05SSS_zX7Sf4RebIyNlMdji6G/view?usp=sharing
Yep, I had the new splash screen after the update but now, a few days later…nothing. Game loads fine, just no splash screen anymore…
I had been getting the splash screen. Gaming services took an update and now no splash screen. Weird stuff going on here.
I’m in FS2020’s files but I don’t even see the image file for a loading screen
Just downloaded the latest update, will try again now, (Still doesnt work)
Just download new gaming services and splash screen is gone
Same here.
Know what your implying, but I don’t know - 3 or 4 coincidences? Seemed to be working fine for me too, until the past 2-3 days.
Downloaded an update to Windows Gaming Services as well as an nVidia driver update a few minutes ago.
I’ll keep plugging along and see if it repeats in the future…
UPDATE:
Started up MSFS a couple of times with -fastlaunch and without. Everything went as it should, except as noted in following post- the nice opening splash screen has disappeared without a trace.
I hope they didn’t cave in to the few who complained about it…
All of a sudden there is no opening Splash screen. How do i get it back please?
Poof! It’s gone! Strange happenings in the dark of the night…
My splash screen is gone too.
Sometimes FS is like my wife, unpredictable…
