Tried all of this, I even reinstalled the whole sim :frowning:

Have you checked this

If this is not working check if you have multiwindow active it might hide a window behind the mainscreen.

Just an update for anyone else having this issue - I just had a response from Microsoft! I haven’t tried it, but I will tonight.

This is most likely caused by a corrupted Cloud Save.

We invite you to delete your Cloud Save. To do so, select your platform and follow the guide.

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.

Kind regards,
Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Team
