Microsoft Flight Simulator suddenly won't load

Tealug · Dec 15, 2022

I have an xbox game pass subscription and decided to install flight simulator on my PC last week (December 2022). I've opened it a few times last week to see if it worked and it looked great and i had no problems. When i came to run the game this week though it won't even load into the menu. I've not changed my system in any way since then.

I've tried reinstalling the game, repairing the files, repairing and resetting the xbox app, none of these things work.

try this.

Reinstall the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10/11 device:

Select the Search icon on the taskbar, type powershell, right-click on Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.

In Windows PowerShell, type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

Install the app on that page and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

Restart your device and try to install the game again.

Hi, Thanks for the response and trying to help. I followed the steps in the link you provided (See attached screenprint) and then restarted my PC but unfortunately the same thing happens. The launcher signs in, Syncs data and then launches game. The screen maximises for maybe 5 seconds and then crashes back to desktop.

Flight Simulator X isn't. That is an old game. However Microsoft Flight Simulator is.
