Syncing data white box and now MSFS will no longer start

Featured Replies

Has anyone seen a white dialog box saying "syncing data" flash up quickly? This popped up, and then got to 1st screen, but crashes after a minute. Never makes it to the main splash screen with loading blue bar at bottom.

 

windows updated. latest nvidia driver. community folder from last few days unlinked...

 

Thanks!

You could try disabling the network and see if it continues to load. MSFS might complain it can only start in offline mode now but once into the main menu you can go to options -> data and reconnect bing etc.

For me, setting the bandwidth limit in MSFS from unlimited to 40mb/s seems to have solved this issue for now.

Tried everything to no avail. Tried re-joining and exiting the beta. It then worked and prompted for re-install. Lost all settings as well. 😞

Yes it happened to me couple times . My solution: log off Xbox app. Restart PC, after restart log back in (Xbox app)

Hello. my workaround: End tasks "gamingservices.exe" and "gamingservicesnet.exe" from task manager. Wait for 5-10 seconds. Run msfs. Thats it. Have a nide day :)
