Flight simulator is stuck on the start screen

this is because the community is not the manufactor and reading all posts in our personal free time is not allways possible… beside of these for 0€ :wink:

have you already checked you windows virtual memory ( pagefile ) ?

See in FAQ
https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015893879-Crashing-CTDs-issues

or better in

Thus: please check your pagefile setting and set at least a max value of 20GIG, better 30GIG and ensure enough free space on disc.

In case these will not help, please check your Anti-Virus-Tool and add the game into the Exclusion List.
