The game does not freeze. When you try to load a flightplan windows explorer window pops up in the foreground and it’s not visible in VR. Hit ESC to close it and the game will work fine.
This problem is as long as VR implementation in MSFS. Switch to monitor when you want to load a flightplan and then switch back to VR. They won’t fix it anytime soon.
I always set everything up for a flight in 2D right up until I’m sitting in the aircraft before I put on the headset and switch to VR. If I have to come out of VR it’s always a pain as all my additional screens from the toolbar get moved to the eyeline and have to be re-located when I re-enter.
Does it affect the immersion? Not for me.

Same issue using HP Reverb G2. When you press load from World Map screen the pop-up window to load your flight plan is hidden behind FS2020’s screen and there is no way to access it.

I would consider this a bug even though it has been around since VR was implemented. I have to get everything set up in 2d mode then once I’m in the plane I can then start VR. Problem is my Reverb G2 doesn’t like going in and out of VR mode. The frame rates drop to slide show speed the 2nd time going back into VR. This means I can’t load a flight plan, start VR, complete my flight and then try loading another flight plan for a VR flight without completely shutting down flight sim and restarting it between flights. It would be so much more convenient if they would just fix it so I could load the flight plan while in VR.
