So about 2 week ago I Installed P3Dv2.4 and before today i had all these add ons on:

 

-REX4 Texture Direct

-Active Sky Next -p3d version

-Aerosoft Airbus A318/19/20/21 X Xtended

-BBS A330

-Majestic Q400

-Aerosoft Heathrow Xtended

-Aerosoft Approaching Innsbruck

-Aerosoft Gibraltar

-UK2000 Leeds Bradford 

-UK2000 Gatwick

-IVAO IvAp

-IVAO_MTL

-vPilot

 

 

As you can see with some add ons such as the UK2000 scenery i've had to migrate into p3d (i did it manually, its quite simple to do) but my simulator has been working fine being able to fly online on VatSim.

 

But today I Installed the QWsim757 and  GSX by FSDT, I checked both products and it said they should work on P3D, but unfortunately it kept on crashing, so i Uninstalled them Both making sure there was no trace of them on the computer by checking these locations:

 

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local

 

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp

and

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming

 

But when i Load up P3D it loads up as normal and im sat in a F35 at the default Airport then after 5 seconds it crashes to Desktop with no Error Message.

 

 

 

Any Help would be appreciated.

 

 

 

 

 

Try deleting or renaming the old prepar3d.cfg file and let it build a new one and see if that helps.

 

Vic

just quickly tried deleting the .cfg in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v2

 

but ive just noticed theres another file location:

 

C:\Users\Dale\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D    (basically without the V2) but that has a .cfg in aswell, shall i delete that aswell? 

I've tried deleting both the .cfg files, still crashes after a few seconds loaded up

I had this problem this weekend. Turned out I had the Intel HD onboard graphic card enable as well as my AMD card. It was behaving the exact same way. I went to device manager and disable the onbard graphic card.

could you explain how to do that?

There is 2 way you can do this. From the bios or from Windows. In windows, control panel and device manager. If you see 2 display adapter, right click and disable the one you are not using.

i only have one display adaptor showing in device manager which is my graphics card

What does you even viewer say about the crash ? which module is failing

im not sure no Error is coming up when it crashes

You have to go to Control panel administrative tools, event viewer, windows log, applications.

i've looked in there, no Errors 

anyone else got any idea's? trying to leave reinstalling p3d to as a last resort

Sorry I know you don't want to hear this but I had some elevation Orbtx scenery problems yesterday, I deleted Orbtx and the got loads of errors and crashes i obviously deleted the scenery in a wrong way. Long story short, I done everything to put Pd3 back correct. Ended up reinstalling PD3, The point is I couldn't belief how easy and quick it was to do it.

As you well know the secret is to rerun the installer and click uninstall so not to mess your licence up. Probably no use to you but that's my 2 cent.

Try changing:

[USERINTERFACE]
...
SITUATION=C:\Users\Ray\Documents\Prepar3D v2 Files\<your present default situation file name>
SHOW_SCENARIO_WINDOW=0

to:

[USERINTERFACE]
...
SITUATION=
SHOW_SCENARIO_WINDOW=1

Sometimes, the situation file that you are using gets corrupted. You can try changing one of those at a time, for finer tuning. The first item will reset everything to the default situation with the default location and aircraft. The second setting will allow you to do that manually.
