How do I get to the main menu? When I load the sim it brings me to the welcome screen but I can't find the a way to the main menu. I am using a keyboard and joystick and have tried every combination I can think of but no main menu.

Welcome screen is the Main Menu. What are you trying to do?

I'm trying to set up the settings and then do a flight. I have used FSX for over 5 years so I do have an idea of the basics. On the screen I get there is nothing referencing the main menu or any keyboard buttons to go to or any place to click that would take me there. I have tried the end key, home and delete to try to get to the screen.

There are lots of "Using MSFS" type tutorials on YouTube. Maybe looking at some of those will help you get started or make it clear there is something wrong with your MSFS install. For example,

There is always the 'back' or 'close' button in the lower left corner.

The home button is a little house in the top left corner, this gives you 4 screens from which you can choose which option you want.

Thank you for the help. I will watch the rest of the videos to get a better understanding of the basics. Now I am setting up the keyboard and the joystick. Any good tutorials on setting these up? Thanks again.

I have not watched any of those. But just go to YouTube and search on MSFS keyboard setup, or MSFS Joystick or controller setup, or MSFS key bindings, etc. I would expect you will find a number of tutorials. For example (I have not watch these, just examples of what is available on YouTube)
