May 23, 20224 yr I mentioned this before, this time short and quick (the problem happened tonight and 2 other times the last month, this cure worked all 3 times). (If you don't have a steam installation then the \steam folder will have another name, but it will be a subfolder of the official folder in the path below). MSFS won't boot (CTD) solutiion: remove (Path)\official\steam\fs-nav-base folder (just the tiny fs-nav-base folder) nothing else MSFS now boots up fine EDIT: it will very quickly redownload new fs-nav-base files (they are small files) at 'checking for updates' and then MSFS boots up properly.

In my MS Store installation, in the "official" folder, I have a sub-folder named "fs-base-nav", not fs-nav-base.

I'm not sure why it keeps getting messed up every 10 days or so on my installation. I am booting up MSFS 2 or 3 times daily. So maybe 1 out of 25 times I have to move fs-base-nav out of that subfolder under Official and let MSFS rebuild it at 'checking for updates'. It's not a big deal but puzzles me. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
