    My flight starts with the basic controls screen blocking the view. Never happened before until I updated. Can’t see a thing. The xbox doesn’t have a cursor to close this box it just controls the plane

    Flight simulator starts with basic controls covering 80% of the screen I can’t see a thing and I can’t move the Xbox controller to the x to s lose the screen. Never happened before until I updated

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    To fix this, please perform a power cycle on your console by following the steps below:

    POWERCYCLE CONSOLE​​​

    ​​​

    1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off. ​​​

    2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller. ​​​

    If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    Select Reset console.

    Reset and keep my games & apps.

    Flight Simulator 2020 crashes with Xbox controller

    I had this happen to me two times, I think.

    Since then I have only been running Flight Simulator in windowed mode (I multitask and do other stuff while flying, using multiple monitors) and as long as I make sure some other window is in focus when I turn on the controller again, it doesn't seem like
    it crashes the flight simulator.

    Basically, this happens when I make a long flight using autopilot and the controller turns itself off because it has been idle for too long. I just click in a browser (or some other app) and hold the xbox-button on the controller. I then wait 10 seconds
    or so before going back to the flight simulator.

    Has worked so far. Experience may vary. :p

    The two times it crashed, I had the flight simulator in focus when i started the controller.

    I'm actually excited for a game to be released

    never really got into flight simulators, I tried, just not my cup'o tea.

    Well, these games aren't flight simulators though.

    If you want a combat flight simulator go check out the Digital Combat Simulator series.

    But because I'm not that into flight simulators, arcade-like games such as the ones Gaijin make are perfect for me.

    I don't have to look around a screen flippin' switches, turnin' dials, and I don't have to purchase a super-serious joystick to enjoy blasting things.
