Microsoft FSX Steam Edition crashing.

Daniel Escobar Toro · Mar 19, 2021

Well, I have just downloaded FSX and every time I fly it, after a couple minutes and using the menu or changing views the game freezes and I get a Crash To Desktop. No message nor notification, just a crash. I have tried everything, chaging the compatibility mode, chanding many dlls, re installing FSX, updating my video cards, updating C++, and many other things.
My PC specs: are

Intel(R) Core (TM) i5-6500 CPU@3.20GHz 3.20GHz
16 GB RAM
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
Windows 10 64 bits.

And the crashes I get always come with 3 reports:

Steam referred me to Dovetail Games as Steam only host the games. This is the reply from Dovetail...

Hello Michael,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We understand you are having issues with Flight Simulator X on Steam. This is a common problem that can be caused by various factors, such as corrupted files, outdated drivers, or incompatible settings. We can try some troubleshooting steps to fix the issue however if the steps fail, we may need you to reach the game support for further assistance.

Here are some steps you can try to fix the issue:

- Verify the integrity of the game files. To do this, right-click on the game in your Steam library, select Properties, then Local Files, then Verify Integrity of Game Files. This will check and repair any missing or damaged files.
