Never ending spinning circle after Dune update

Featured Replies

Does anyone else have this where the bottom right corner has the never ending looping while circle after the Dune update?

I also notice that trying to change controller settings for a specific aircraft takes forever now with a pause in between each selection.

You have to restart the simulator after the update. The spinning circle will go away.

You need to restart MSFS after the update, will resolve it

Yes, restarting MSFS seems to work.  I actually advocate a quick PC reboot as well.

OK thanks, I went right into a flight after the update.

Rule number 1 after an update.  Restart PC

Rule Number 2 after an update, make sure you do rule number 1. 

 

 

 

The restart is not the perfect solution. There have been perturbations in the Controls options panel since when you change controller profiles from one aircraft to another. There is a thread about it over there. The mandatory update before the Dune thing was about ‘widgets’ and broke something IMO.

At my end, I also that see a slowdown in loading the sim. I suppose that all people downloading Dune and the beta tax the servers a bit .

I thought this thread was about the spinning circle?

I had this myself. Three hour flight with the spinning circle... 🤪

Kicked myself in the rear end when I realised I hadn't restarted after the update for Dune. Everything is back to normal after reboot.

MSFS Team is aware of that problem, should be fixed within the next update,

Constant White Circle Spinning

 

In my personal opinion I wouldn't believe very much in what they're saying about this. They said the same about the slow downloads during the updates, including a extensive report with several graphics and explanations, and no solutions yet. And the spinning circle issue has happened before, not only this time after the Dunes Update.

It is like the fever and the flue. One is the symptom, the other the illness. The spinning thingie is the symptom. I suspect that the illness is their servers insufficient capacity. The circle may show a streaming issue.  Now, they can hide the circle for sure…

I had that spinning circle as well and it went away after restart, but I've also been seeing a lot of instability in MSFS. This weekend I've had MSFS randomly crash on me three times, without any seeming reason and event viewer just claims there was an application hang and Windows shut MSFS down. When I managed to fly from PANC to PACV I found performance quite a bit more stuttery than it had been with quite a lot of stutters upon touchdown. Hadn't seen this behavior in a long, long time...

Besides the Dune update there was also a seemingly minor Windows update, though not sure what that did. I also installed Tailstrike Prague, Amsim/BMW KMIA and... a third scenery, don't remember what. Never had any issues after scenery install so must be related to the Windows update or Duna update, I'd think.
