January 7, 20224 yr So here i am with FS2020 finally successfully installed and actually dedicating some time to setting it up. I installed some 20 addons, mostly airport scenery and boom: MSFS crashes at startup in the loading screen when showing the PC-6 picture at around 80% of the blue bar, 0x00000c5. In safe mode it runs normal. It is obvious one of the addons is causing the issue. Now I wonder if there is any way to identify the faulty addon without spending hours with trial and error. Any logfile or console or something like that?

Any logfile or console or something like that? Remove all add ons, see if it crashes. If it doesn't, load 1/2 of the add ons at a time, and you can easily pin down the trouble maker.
January 7, 20224 yr Quickest way is to remove half of them and figure which half is causing issue. Rinse and repeat. With 20 addons you will have pretty quickly Edited January 7, 20224 yr by mobeans10

Not a priority now. 😁 Overall the sim seems to be running more stable, with less conflicts and fewer tweaks required than FSX was at its 2006 release. Edited January 7, 20224 yr by Soulflight

I highly recommend that you install the Addons Linker (https://flightsim.to/file/1572/msfs-addons-linker) to manage your addons. I currently have 501 addons installed, 464 of which are active. Using the linker, I can turn on or off addons in a matter of a minute or two. Has all sorts of great features. One of the best (and it's main reason for being) is that you can organize your addons in a subfolder hierarchy. As you may know, addon folders in the Community folder can't be in subfolders. ...jim ASUS Prime Z790-E, Intel i9 13900K, 32Gb DDR5 Ram, Nvidia 3090 24Gb, Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500 GB and 1 TB, Samsung Odyssey G9 Ultrawide 49" G-SYNC Monitor.
January 7, 20224 yr As already stated start by removing half, but in my experience liveries are the no1 cause - so if you have any of them I’d remove first - or with the first 50% New PC Ryzen 9850X3D - 32gb ddr5 6000Mhz - MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk wifi - Gigabyte wind force gaming OC 5090 - 2TB Sabrent NVMe.

My MSFS would not anymore start up within the remaining time of my life without it. Yes, I tried once.😉 Plus, it has a map showing you all your scenery addons, which feature was added later and may not be generally known.

January 8, 20224 yr I always wonder how Poirot has decided which one is the rogue and which ones are clean. He starts by saying "I suppose you are all wondering why I have called you all here together in the master's library". "One of you is the killer and Poirot he knows".
