October 18, 20205 yr Strange things happening, almost funny that MSFS always comes up with new challenges on basically the very same computer. I chose delete and reinstall yesterday to install MSFS on my new Samsung SSD. Ok, took some time but basically all fine now except that - the toolbar is gone?! Moving the mouse does not bring anything up. Is there an option to deactivate the toolbar or a key assignment to bring the menue up during flight? - also, the yellow ready to fly button is gone?!? I started holding short of the takeoff runway now several times at KEYW and LOWI Anybody else seen this? Any idea how to fix it.

October 18, 20205 yr There still both there for me post-patch. I’m afraid your install might be corrupted. i910900k, RTX 3090, 32GB DDR4 RAM, AW3423DW, Ruddy girt big mug of Yorkshire Tea
October 18, 20205 yr I’ve seen odd behavior like this now and again usually solved by a restart of the sim or a restart of my desktop...

I could swear I did do a cold boot. Just did it again and this time when launching MSFS from the desktop icon a message with an installer popped up. Just starting a departure from LOWI. Will report back in few minutes update: no change. No ready to fly (can live with that) but also no toolbar. Will probably re-install once again.

I chose delete and reinstall yesterday to install MSFS on my new Samsung SSD. Ok, took some time but basically all fine now except that Did you manually delete the MSFS folder in Windows Explorer? Or did you do a clean uninstall by following the instructions for a clean uninstall? Manually deleting the MSFS folder is not the same as doing a clean uninstall. Follow the instructions here for a clean uninstall and clean install for the Microsoft Store version: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016107019-How-to-repair-or-remove-and-do-a-clean-install-of-Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-on-Microsoft-Store-Gamepass And the clean uninstall and install instructions for the Steam version: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016125019-How-to-repair-remove-and-do-a-clean-install-of-Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-on-Steam In a nutshell, if you went to WIndows Explorer and you manually deleted MSFS yourself, it causes problems. The reason is there could be hidden files & hidden folders that you didn't delete, and there may be registry settings you didn't delete. Thus, your removal of MSFS could be corrupted. A proper clean uninstall by following the links I posted above should properly remove hidden files & folders, and remove the registry settings for you. If you want further help, check the official MSFS Discord channel. Edited October 18, 20205 yr by abrams_tank i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
October 18, 20205 yr Author Thanks but I did not delete it manually but through the apps settings Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"
October 18, 20205 yr Author Yes since I re-installed on a brandnew and empty SSD Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"
October 18, 20205 yr It's a well-known issue, and I had it, too. https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/missing-cockpit-and-freezing-when-pressing-ready-to-fly/291435/39 (plus several more threads on this). Uninstall FaceTRackNoIr (even if it's not running) and you should be (hopefully) done.

October 18, 20205 yr Author Thanks Michael but it’s a vanilla install without FaceTrackNoIR. Deleted several folders from my MSFS official folder and now downloading yet again as we speak...

You don't need to have FaceTrackNoIR installed into MSFS, for some odd reasons it seems to be sufficient to have it on the system (which applied to me). Otherwise... I would make a new thread in the Official Forum and/or report to Zendesk.

October 18, 20205 yr Author Yes. Never downloaded let alone used FaceTrack yet. As I said downloading now some 87gib and will check once done. Else I will report it to zendesk for sure.

October 19, 20205 yr Author Final update: re-install helped. Ready to Fly button and taskbar are back. All fine now.
