March 26, 20242 yr Since two days ago, every time I start the sim I'm given the option to start in Safe mode. I simply select Normal and everything runs perfectly with no error messages showing on startup or shutdown. Anyone have any idea why the Safe mode option is being presented at every startup?

March 26, 20242 yr Some weird stuff has started happening since a week or so. I experienced not that but other flavours of weirdiness 🙂 but it looks like at least for now on my side it has gone... Anyway, I suggest you logoff and then login again with your MS account used in the sim.

March 26, 20242 yr Author Thanks for the reply. Tried a logout/login. No joy.

March 26, 20242 yr I've not been getting that, but for the last 2 or 3 days I have been getting the 'press any key to start' message which takes me to the X Box App login and when I log out and log back in, MSFS will still not start. Whilst a reboot has solved up until now, I do wonder what is going on. Once I reboot, all runs normally. With this and your problem Noell, I wonder whether some server issues are at play again.

March 26, 20242 yr The safe mode glitch has been corrected in the latest Beta release. Apparently, it affected all versions - not just the beta. You should be rid of it when they release SU15. In the meantime, just choose the other option (can't remember what it says, but run in regular mode is the idea). There was also a problem with starting in Windows mode (cleared with R-ALT + ENTER), but it has also been fixed. John Wingold
March 26, 20242 yr Author Thanks, guys. This safe mode glitch only showed up on my system two days ago and, come to think of it, so did the sim always starting in windowed mode. Weird goings on for sure.

March 27, 20242 yr Not saying this will work in the meantime but, if you haven't already tried it, start in safe mode then exit the sim as normal. Restart the PC (just in case it might help) and see if you are still getting the safe mode/normal mode screen. You never know...

Thought I'd suggest it as sometimes the simplest solutions are the ones you overlook. Other zero risk possibilities* are a) repair MSFS in Windows Settings/Apps and b) repair Windows using the Media Creation Tool on the Windows download page for Win10 or Win11 as appropriate. All sorts of MSFS startup and update issues end up being fixed by option b). I'm thinking of claiming commission each time I suggest it. 😁 * as much as anything can be zero risk.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm using the Steam version and I used the Steam verify files option and then did a reinstall. It didn't change anything and, seeing other simmers are seeing the same thing, I'm thinking/hoping it will get sorted once SU15 drops.

March 28, 20242 yr I used to have this issue for many months when I first got the sim. It went away eventually. No idea what caused it.
April 24, 20242 yr Author Any update on these annoyances: Sim not saving the full screen mode and still getting the Safe mode option presented at every startup Are those on the SU15 beta seeing this?
