MSFS flight sim Won't Start

[Voluptus]

I’m wondering if this might help. Halfway down the page, there’s a section titled:
" Stop Windows Defender from blocking Microsoft Flight Simulator by adding the launcher to the exclusions list", with instructions.

Yeah been there done that, add as an exclusion, at one point earlier in the year defender was disabled. No difference. even did the 0x033 thing still no difference.
