I guess I picked a bad time to uninstall FSX to go solely with MSFS 2020.

Since SU5, Ctrl + E isn't working to fire up my TBM, I get a weird scroll bar on the right side of my screen in the cockpit, and had a ton of weird artifacts where buildings belong at KBOS. I'm sure there's more But I haven't gotten any further to discover.

To say the least, I'm very unhappy with my sim right now. 😒

Honestly there are plenty of reasons to be unhappy but CTRL+E is not one of them... you call it "sim" and then you don't want to follow the checklist? 🙂

Spawn on the runway and the aircraft will be on already.

As for FSX... jeez.

I haven't flown the TBM yet, but did jump in it a few minutes ago and Ctrl + E did start from cold and dark.

It's amazing what different experiences we are all having with this new update.

The definition of sim is different for different people, sometimes I want to fly a 747 but not go thru the start process. Depends on my mood. But Ctrl + E is a feature, and should work. If it doesn't, it's a legit complaint.

I use Ctrl + E to save REAL time not "sim" time. If starting from cold and dark takes me as much time as I have to do the entire flight I have planned, it's a turn off for me. I do enjoy taxiing and seeing the sights around the airport rather than spawning on the active.

I'm currently doing the multi-hour reinstall to see if that helps. I'm not holding my breath though.
