    Why does MSFS lag in full screen but not in windowed

    Hi Josef,

    Thanks for replying, this is from my other account. I'm am currently running it on Windows 11, and I think i'm using the Microsoft Store edition, this only started recently. And yes, the computer has gotten a bit slower recently. I tried using the Nvidia Vsync but that didn't help.

    Why does MSFS lag in full screen but not in windowed

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community.

    My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor

    Hope you're doing great today despite this MZCJ

    Additional information is needed, please tell me:

    Are you using windows 10 or 11?

    What are your hardware specs?

    Are you using the Steam or the Microsoft store/Xbox app edition?

    Is this happening only with this game or if you try a different game something similar happens?

    And, tell me briefly what did you tried so far to fix this

    In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

    Can't sign in to Xbox to launch MSFS

    I just wanted to let you guys know that I found a solution to my Xbox sign in problem that seems to have worked. I found this advice on Steam's Flight Simulator Help page:

    " "when at the screen , hold ALT and press ENTER , MSFS will go out of fullscreen mode and then Xbox signin button is pressable… , repeat alt+enter to go back to full screen mode. it’s now 1 year later and this bug still not fixed , how sad !!! i just recieved my 4th heart , this means this bug is st…" "

    In my case , the screen stayed in full screen, but a window to sign into my Microsoft account replaced the Xbox sign in window & I successfully logged into my Microsoft account & MSFS finished loading. Now when I start MSFS, I'm already signed in. Before this, even though I was already logged into my Microsoft account, I couldn't get past the Xbox sign in .

    Anyway, I just thought I'd let you guys know about this solution & say thanks for your support.

    Mixed Reality Error

    Hi Tommy, I don't have a VR device, I don't understand why this has happened at all, I just cannot get the screen message to go off my screen and allow me open the msfs! I have asked on the msfs forum, with no real answer to the issue.I did try Ctrl+Tab but, does the programme need to be open,if so then I can't go any further than the image I have posted,

    regards,



    Alex,
