And don´t forget, you can proof your Addons with the Addon-linker if there is a problem with the model-lib or the material-lib (Mostly the reason for crashing with addons.)😉

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.

thx, this is the future. 😉

Use the addon on linker and install 3 mods at a time.

Yes, that method will work when you have 20 add-ons, but when you get to several hundred...😁

The 50% method is definitely the one to use. And in future, only install one new add-on at a time and test it... if you have the discipline to do that, which I rarely do!

Maybe its getting over loaded. I have my folders all organized and also seperated by regions. If I'm not planning on flying a region, that region is not loaded.

But we're talking about narrowing down which add-on might be causing an issue, in which case what you're saying isn't really relevant. I too have all my add-ons in region folders. But it still means when narrowing searching for problem add-ons that the 50% method is advisable, even if that means 50% of a region rather than 50% of your entire add-on collection.
