There are known issues with USB on the x570 platform. Most vr forums are full of them.

What does this thread have to do with USB?

Unless I misread, CTD's can occur with USB dropouts including peripherals 

 

This thread is about the vaccine which is an entry in the registry that affects GPU timings. Nothing to do at all with USB.

Oh dang, posting in wrong thread. Apologize and please ignore.

I wonder if this fix is just masking a problem that needs to be fixed.  Do we know if Windows game mode is a factor with the CTD's?

I've posted about this registry key (see below).

My post has nothing to do with CTD with FS2020 but Computer hard-lock/freeze due to HDD, and this might help you too.

It is possible this is related if for example your FS2020 files are on a HDD (say your cache) and it went sleeping while flying. Read more below:

From time to time, my Win10 system would just halt with a black screen with no other recourse than powering off. It is very frustrating and you never know what damage to your files will result out of this.

Whatever the theory is about why this fix was created, it stopped my CTDs and that is what is important to me. I am on an SSD anyway. I was about ready to uninstall MSFS 2020 and purchase P3D, until this fix came along.

This tweak may prevent some endless freezes where the GPU scheduler is an actor under the hood.

So after a recent spate of CTDs out of nowhere, I tried this regedit AND I removed GeForce experience at the same time; and today I had a nice, pleasant, hour-long flight with no crashes. Now I'm debating whether to add GeForce Experience back and give it another try, as I really like recording my flights with GeForce.

Have you considered that recording the flights with Geforce experience  may be the issue?

Unless you absolutely need it i would recommend not using experience.

Why do you need Geforce Experience ?

It's a really easy way to record flights. Other than that I have no need for it. I've been trying to find a simple and free recording tool to replace it, if you have a suggestion I'd appreciate it. With GeForce Exp you just hit Ctrl+R and it records the flights. I use it for recording flights for my YouTube channel.

Shadowplay is indeed a good recorder. I also use GE for the in-game filters, they help  a little to migate the overexposure on my SDR monitor. 

But I do not have CTD so I doubt this is a factor.

Ok well it has a purpose .. give it a try .. If you ctd .. well you now know why. Im not saying that it is the reason for your ctd but for me i never install anything that i am not using and try to stick to the bare essentials. 

Hmm would an ELGATO work to capture your video ? Im not a pro at media so im probably not the one to ask but i think thats one system that streamers like to use.

Yeah, I'd be happy if I reinstall it and get no CTDs. But the main thing is no CTDs. What's weird is I wasn't having them, didn't change anything, and then they started happening. Just one after another. It's bizarre. And what causes crashes for some people is no problem for others and vice versa. I like to think it was this regedit that did the trick.
