MSFS crashing to desktop when loading

User Support Hub Crashes (CTDs)

Hello, I am having an issue with MSFS crashing to the desktop at some point during the main loading, and I can’t figure out why. When it crashes, I don’t get any kind of error message, the game just closes itself back to the desktop. I have tried restarting the computer as well as verifying the game files with no luck. I used the reliability report in windows and got some info about the crash which i will post below, so hopefully someone with more knowledge can help me

Thanks

Same here, It was working last week, but when it gets to the ‘Dune’ screenshots I get the CTD.
No new content installed or anything.

Thank you, however, the situation sorted itself out for now. I was able to load the game in Safe Mode and then when I went back and opened it in normal mode it worked again. So I’m not really sure what was causing the issue.
