August 23, 20205 yr Anyone get this beauty ? Happens randomly on extended flights ( non local ) ... on SSD external too so wondering if we can’t use portable SSD for this sim or just a bug that’s early on in FS2020 life ....
August 25, 20205 yr Hello, i have the exact same error and subsequent CTD. i have had this for a long time now and have no idea how to fix it. i have tried many things but nothing seems to work. it doesnt seem to be related to settings in the sim. i also am suspicious that it may be to using an external HD that i bought just for this sim.' i would really love to get some advise as at the moment i can only get 5-15 minutes ought of this wonderful looking and performing sim. i have just made a major investment to upgrade my computer so that MSFS now recognizes it as a "HIGH end to ULTRA" machine, but still have the same problem as i did when it was a mid-level computer. both versions though i am using the same brand new external HD (Samsung T7 2tb) David Myers
August 26, 20205 yr FINALLY! Problem solved, at least for me. i had a setting wrong in the external hard drive's properties. I have a brand new Samsung T7 2Tb external hard drive that i bought just for MSFS. if you go into Device Manager / Disk Drives / Samsung T7 HHD (for me), then right click for properties. under the "policies" tab, i changed to "Better Performance" in the top section and then clicked on "enable write caching on this device" on the lower section. i had never gone more than 15-25 minutes without crashing or the "unable to read file..." error. tonight i was in the sim for several hours with no CTD's fingers crossed, but looks like heaven now Edited August 26, 20205 yr by av8r13 David Myers
