As I’d had trouble installing the fs2024 app originally (even though it was several days after the launch), I was trying to avoiding a reinstallation.
The solution provided previously solved my problem without a reinstallation, the only drawback being the need to again set up my controller.
I have same problem here. And I cannot agree that DeleteCloudSaves is a “solution” for this problem since it need to restart everything all over again.
This is obvious a bug and I hope it can be fixed asap.
On the other hand, I found that if I disable the following setting in BIOS, this problem seems gone.
There are certainly lots of faults cause similar symptoms. I think my problem was a corrupted configuration file, as it happened immediately after I had spent a long time setting up my joystick, mouse and keyboard. This solution is the one that worked for me, and I haven’t had a problem since.
It is certainly not the best software coding, as at if the software detects that it cannot carry out an essential task it should post a message saying where and why this happened. All it currently seems to do when it meets such a problem, is to effectively shrug its shoulders and carry on regardless.
This issue could be avoided with a simple option to skip the start screen and go straight to the main menu.
I had this issue 2 days ago (in the UK). Restarted the sim about 3 times with a PC restart thrown in for good measure and it did not resolve. Next day booted up and it was back to normal. Weird and unexplained.
