Does it eventually get going again? I’ve been having long pauses on flight Loading recently, posted to the bug forum today about it

No Brief description of the issue: Often when loading a Flight from the Main Menu the Sim will “Pause” (hang) for a prolonged period at the same part of the loading screen, anywhere from 10seconds to 1minute.

Community folder is empty. I have waited for more than 30minutes a few times and nothing happens. Alt+F4 does nothing. I have to use Task Manager to stop it to retry.

How far along is the blue bar when this happens?
Did you try signing out of X-box, then back in and trying the sim?

Did you check your server connections?

[merschimax]

My connection is working well the whole day, I think it must be a MSFS, IVAO, or FBW problem

[WoolDart6138813]

Server connections seems to be working. It is checking for updates just fine. It is when i push the FLY button it stopps. In task manager it says Not Responding.
