I am having the same problem as you. I’m running the MS Store version, no add-ons at all. (Re-downloaded the game yesterday because my machine was crashing). Deleted the fs-base folder, started the game, got the files redownloaded and the same thing happens to me. Except now, I’m not seeing the Dune start-up screens.
Confermo che sono su STEAM.
NON ero nella BETA di SU15
Moderator Edit:
I confirm that they are on STEAM.
I was NOT in the BETA of SU15
RISOLTO.
Ho disinstallato MSFS da STEAM.
Ho cancellato completamente la cartella di Microsoft Flight simulator che si trova in:C/USER/MYNAME/APPDATA/ROAMING/MSFS
Ho scaricato nuovamente Microsoft Flight simulator da STEAM.
Ho riavviato il PC.
Ho fatto partire Microsoft Flight Simulator e tutto funziona nuovamente.
CM Edit:
RISOLTO.
I have uninstalled MSFS from STEAM.
I have completely canceled the Microsoft Flight Simulator banner which is found in: C/USER/MYNAME/APPDATA/ROAMING/MSFS
We have recently downloaded Microsoft Flight simulator from STEAM.
Ho riavviato il PC.
Now Microsoft Flight Simulator will start and everything will work again.
The Dune start-up sreens were removed from the sim yesterday, so you won’t see that anymore.
I am also having issues with the menu loading screen after the update, my planes are also pink and checkered and nothing loads properly. Before the update, everything was fine and working properly. To answer your question, no I was not in Sim Update 15 beta or nothing like that. I installed the game, reinstalled it clean and I still get the same problems, please release a patch or something. I can’t even enjoy it and its been like this since the update came out.
I encountered the same problems after Update 15. Unable to open Options or Profile, same weird textures and colours. I am reinstalling for the 3rd time, but I’m not feeling confident of success…after long16 hours downloading. My edition is MS Store ,OS Windows 11

After downloading the entire game last night, having it work, the new update killed me and sent me back to where I was before I downloaded it. No Options or Profile menus, incorrect world map background. Full download #3 
I’m having the exact same issue, hopefully this roles out quickly on mine, couldn’t even fly the new A20N from Inibuilds, kept crashing
Msfs 2020 introduced almost almost 4 years ago. Would’ve hoped the various issues in this would’ve been fixed before 2024 lands in the stores. It certainly has put me off considering the new sim.
Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

Both my Steam versions have become unusable since latest updates. Horrendous. Re installed on both PC’s no differance!
Where do I get this update?
Hi @simon4188 ,
I believe @DashedTie870708 was referring to this update, which is installed automatically if you don’t already have it:
I had the same problem and this worked a treat. Thank you so much

Did anyone solve it?
Thank you a million times!! This problem of being unable to access Options and Profile , plus purple/pink textures has now been solved by following your Fix.
I deleted fs-base from C:>Games>MSFS2020>Official>One store list of Asobo aircraft, airports etc. Started msfs2020, and when the screen opened, there was an UPDATE of about 6.4GB which loaded quite quickly…then lo and behold, Options and Profile were available, and the strange texture colours had gone! THANK YOU

yes

Same problem, followed the vanilla reset procedure exactly
as they asked with no results. Tried other suggestions above with no results. Seems we all have one thing in common though, SU15. Is there a way to roll back or do we have to wait for a real fix with SU16.
Are you using DX11 or DX12?
Do not know, can’t get into the options.
Are you using DLSS?
Yes, on other games but not sure since the options are not working.

I couldn’t get it working so I deleted everything I could find related to Microsoft flight simulator or addons. Then I turned the computer off and threw the power switch to turn off the usb power. Rebooted and ran CC cleaner’s registry cleaner. It found a whole bunch of registry entries related to msfs and third party plugins. I deleted them all and rebooted. Ran CC cleaner again just to be sure I got it all. Then went into steam and installed msfs 2020. It’ll take all night to come in. By removing a few things listed above I couldn’t get it to work nor could I get it to do a full reinstall. Also simply uninstalling msfs didn’t get all of the stuff in the hidden app data folder and that was preventing a complete reinstall. It’s sill installing with all usb controllers unplugged. I’ll hook those up one at a time if the option come back in the main menu. I’ll report back later if this works.
