I guess this qualifies as a crash because the sim will not start! This afternoon I decided to start MSFS 2020 after several busy days and it will not start. I’ve tried through XBox and the Start menu. When I try to start through the Start menu, absolutely nothing happens. When I start with XBox, I g…

FYI: The problem will occur regardless of whether you use the NVIDIA app or not. It comes when you switch from DirectX 12 to 11. Use the NVIDIA app and hit the ‘Optimize game’ for 2020 and leave it on DX 12.

I’ve got a similar issue, but mine crashes upon load with dxgi error. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the gfx driver, uninstalling and reinstalling the sim with no luck. I noticed my issue after SU16 dropped. I haven’t played it since before it came out.

Use ‘Display Driver Uninstaller’ to remove the GPU driers and clean things up. Use it from within safe mode.

I have tried that twice, uninstalled the sim, formatted the drive, reinstalled the drivers and game, and still get the same dxgi hung error. Not sure what else to do at this point. 2024 works just fine, at least not crashing cause of gfx issues.

Hello, First of all, thank you for your help, but despite trying all the suggested options, my problem persists. The software still crashes regardless of the airport or aircraft selected.

This code is not very specific. It means a program tried to access a part of memory and could not get the access. If you haven’t yet, run sfc/scannow, DISM, and a memory check. These are all in Windows and there are many You Tube videos on how to use them. You might also try running OCCT, a free tes…
