MSFS 2020 won't launch after update and now, hot fix

I launch the program, and after several minutes, it just hangs up, altways at the same spot, and will not complete loading. I’ve left it for 30 minutes and no change.
Yes, the program has caused me some minor frustration from time to time, mostly after updats, and something not working, but now it wont even launch.

Any ideas…I’m guessing a full reload…again.

Do you got any none marketplace mods, planes, airports or whatever installed? Remove those first as some are not updated yet and might give the sim problems starting up or loading into a flight.

I had everything out of the community folder when I did the update but not the hot fix. Removed everything, now it will launch.

Thanks, beats doing a complete reload. Now just have to wait for the “mods” to be updated so they will work again.

Thank you, I removed all market place mods and this seems to work. Hopefully the devs will update them soon.

I can’t get the sim to launch even after the hot fix, and I even emptied the entire community folder before the update 5. The launch screen comes up black for about 30 seconds the crashes. I tried a complete clean the install and no luck. It’s been extremely frustrating.

I’m in the same boat. Can’t get past the loading screen, it just crashes. It is sad, I just put away all my sim hardware since I can’t use it anymore. I hope they release a fix for this soon. I really want to get back to flying the sim again.
