Hello fellow pilots,
Hopefully my post is in the proper community section. Otherwise please move it.
Looking for options regarding my MSFS 2020 Premium Edition freezing at the New Activities screen. Of course, read on this forum and others finding a solution. Program was working flawlessly until last “Maverick” update. Of course, the update was not supposed to impact the core of the program. Even Safe Mode does not allow program to continue.
Currently, program loads properly until it reaches the New Activities screen with progress bar reaching the end. At times, I would wait several minutes just in case next screen comes up. Occasionally, instead of seeing the Top Gun images (New Activities) it would be a black screen.
Keep in mind ALL updates to date including Win10 Pro, Nvidia card, etc.
System more than capable running MSFS, CPU AMD 5900X, GTX2080, 64GB memory, etc.
Mind you, not a problem until last update. Of course, I have bought aircraft, airports but only from the MSFS marketplace. I’m aware its possible it may be affecting the program. It’s a bummer after spending money in the marketplace and the program itself to be useless at this time. It appears there are others having same or similar issues.
I tried after 5 hours downloading the “One Store” content still having the same problem.
That is, not progressing past the New Activities screen. too many users have reported after re-installing game and even Windows did not solve the problem.
Are we looking for the coders to put out a patch soon ? Be nice if we could choose not to update a mandatory download until its been proven to be safe.
Any input is appreciated. Can pass on more information as requested.
