Instant Blue Screen (BSOD) when trying to run MSFS - See Error Msg below

Yeah but the issue is I’m getting several varying error codes on the BSOD. Its either thread exception not handled or system service exception. I work in IT and I know that BSOD is usually a hardware or corrupt/malfunctioning drivers. All me and the OP are saying is that it was once working (for me only 48 hours ago) no hardware changes have been made nor have any config files for MSFS2020 been changed and I can easily go about other tasks or programs for hours and won’t see the BSOD until I open MSFS. It’s the only program I open that has ever caused a BSOD. I also recently performed a clean windows install as well to start my system off fresh. It’s something that has changed with Microsoft in the last 36 hours or so, albeit windows updates, Microsoft store updates and or updates to the sim. Hardware and drivers have been tested/updated. Me and the OP are not the only ones having this issue in the recent hours either. Antivirus was disabled as a first test area, still no resolve.
