Hi.

Can you locate this mimalloc.dll file in your system? Maybe its part of some addon not compatible with 5.1. Or it crashes your sim because its trying to fins the addon in the comunity folder you cleared. Anyway i would start with that because i dont recall seeing that dll as part of the msfs2024 default files.

This post links that issue with nvidia drivers. Worth a look also.
