ACTIVE PAUSE self activates

[apoincon]

While flying I get a pop up that has this in the popup.

Active Pause is enabled.
MSFS active pause is enabled. Push OK when ready to resume tacking and then disable active pause.

This popup starts repeating itself until it fills the display. I cannot stop it and I have to use TASK MANAGER to stop MSFS. I do not know how to stop this from happing.

You are now in the correct forum for your question!

I suspect you have a button or key assigned to active pause in your bindings or a conflict somewhere.

For me, I mapped the P key to active pause and found that the sim was pausing every time I entered a P into the Garmin when selecting an airport.

No I do not have a key bound for this action.It starts doing this without me hitting any key or any control button on my controller.

Did some more testing today. I had been using a PMDG 737-800 for a flight from KORD and KSTL and after going a little more than half way through it started happening. I must have tried 4 or 5 times. Today I tried with an Aerosoft CRJ700 and made the flight with no problems.I can't beleave PMDG would have a problem like this. Guess I'll have go into the PMDG forum and check it out

I now have MSFS 2024 and the prolem is here also. This is happening while ths sim is starting off. I do not touch the keyboard or my controls and this pops up. I am not running PMDG and I have no controls set up for any kind of pause command.

So I'm not getting a pop up but I just had this happen last night on a long haul. I set up the iniBuilds A350 for a flight from Paris to Cancun. I did not have PAUSE AT TOD turned on in the EFB. I come back to my computer this morning and it is randomly paused over the middle of the Atlantic for zero reason. No pop ups. No indications that something interfered.

Just so weird. Sometimes this hobby feels like walking on egg shells lol.
