  1. Flight Simulator Crash to Desktop at "Ready to Fly" button click


    I have tried everything and am at my wits' end. The game ran fine through the summer and has become unreliable recently - crashing consistently.

    All caches cleared / XMP turned off (it was working with XMP before!), My PC is stock - no overclocking.

    AMD 3700X CPU

    B450 Motherboard (Gigabyte DS3h)

    32GB RAM (3000 - tried with XMPP on and off)

    AMD RX580 GPU

    Basic 1080 monitor.

    No idea why this is happening, but I really enjoyed this game but now it's become too buggy and unreliable.

    Event Log says the following:

    Faulting application name: FlightSimulator.exe, version: 1.27.21.0, time stamp: 0x00000000

    Flight Simulator Crash to Desktop at "Ready to Fly" button click

    I have been having the exact same problem, maybe 2 weeks ago me and my brother were playing it, got on the next day and boom game quits to desktop when I press “Read to Fly” no error message. not even 24 hours in between playing, no updates, nothing.

    -AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

    -ASUS Prime B550-PLUS AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 Motherboard

    -32GB RAM

    -Radeon Pulse RX 5600 XT 14GBPS 6GB GDDR6

    I want to say I have tried everything to fix this problem, I have followed a handful of articles about similar problems people had back in the day, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the entire game THREE TIMES, I have switched it between multiple drives. I updated all my drivers, and still when I load up the game to the point that I’m actually in the game and my plane is taxing I press “Ready to Fly” and it quits to desktop. Strangely tho a lot of the activities still work, like all the top gun stuff EXCEPT the dark star training.

    I did notice we both have AMD stuff, my brother has Nvidia stuff and he has no problem.

    I hope we find a fix to this soon

    Perhaps your reply should also advise the user to buy a new PC. The flight simulator stopped working for me also today after less than one week of it working. It seems the software suffers the usual quality issues.

    When you reinstall it, it works, and the settings do not save at the start. Then you reinstall the Xbox Gaming services, making the game crash again.

    So, will I waste one more day trying to make it work or just cancel the Xbox game path and move forward?

    This same crash event occurs in my system ONLY when:

    In "WORLD MAP" and selecting the "READY TO FLY" button (tried several departure airports and several aircraft).

    Crash did not occur on my PC before the version: 1.27.21.0 update (SIM Update 10, released in August 2022).

    Microsoft/Asobo, please resolve this issue.

    I followed all the recommended checks and updates prescribed in this thread and they did not fix the issue of crashing in the "WORLD MAP" area. All other game features such as "FLIGHT TRAINING", "ACTIVITIES", "DISCOVERY FLIGHTS" do not cause the crash (CTD - crash to desktop).

    My PC OS is:

    Edition Windows 10 Pro

    Version 22H2

    Installed on ‎7/‎20/‎2020

    OS build 19045.2193

    Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4180.0

    Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (4 GB dedicated GPU memory)

    Hello Simon,

    Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

    Firstly, could you let me know the specific system version? Please check it (you can display it by pressing the Win key + R key, and entering "winver", then press Enter), and only send the relevant information without PII in the next reply.

    Next, did you have any special operations before this exception occurs? Such as installing Windows updates, hardware changes, or the computer being physically bumped, etc. If there is, please describe it in detail, or take a screenshot, and only send the relevant information without PII in the next reply.

    Here are my tips for you!

    1. Memory Diagnostic

    Win + Q to open the search box, enter " MdSched ", press Enter to open the program, select "Restart now and check for problems(recommended)", then restart the system and start memory diagnosis.

    2. Automatic virtual memory management

    Win + R to open "Run", enter "sysdm.cpl", press Enter to open 'System Properties"> "Advanced" tab > "Performance" > "Settings"> "Advanced" tab"> "Virtual memory"> "Change" , check "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives", and press Enter to confirm.

    3. Repair possible corrupted system files

    Run the following commands to fix possible corrupted system files. Run Command Prompt as an administrator ("Win" logo key + "Q", enter "cmd", select "Run as administrator"), and enter the following commands one by one. These commands require network support, please keep your network stable and smooth.

    sfc /scannow
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
    wsreset.exe
    powershell "Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}"
    for %i in (%windir%\\system32\\*.dll) do regsvr32.exe /s %i
    4. Perform a clean boot

    This is a mode of disabling third-party services or software, which could help rule out the interference of these elements.

    Disclaimer: A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem.

    These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by-step so that it will help you get you back on track.

    Additionally, I looked up some information and found that quite a few Flight Simulator players have experienced problems similar to yours. You can visit Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums to post your question, this is a forum dedicated to solving problems Flight Simulator users experience in their daily use.

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards,

    | Microsoft Community Support Specialist
