June 18, 20241 yr Obviously late to this thread here. I have had this "stuck on updates" a few times since the initial launch. I just "force quit" the sim and re-start the computer and all is fine. I somehow think it is a timing issue with the servers when launching the sim.

This is getting rediculous. Anybody else getting CTD's? They must have worked on something in the wee hours of the night. The game loaded properly, no hang at checking updates, and no CTD. Wonder if they will share with us what happened. i9-14900 3.2GHz 64 GB Ram RTX4090
June 18, 20241 yr Something strange about that on and off again server slowdowns recently. I say this because there was no big update happening to cause a rush of more players than normal. 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.

June 18, 20241 yr Spoke too soon. Just finished up a flight from KEWR to KATL. Shut the game down and tried to load it back up. It's stuck on checking for updates AGAIN. How frustrating Update. After 10-12 minutes of checking for updates, the game loaded in and worked properly. Hopefully they figure it out. Edited June 18, 20241 yr by Jeff D i9-14900 3.2GHz 64 GB Ram RTX4090
June 18, 20241 yr They've set up a survey: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/checking-for-updates-community-survey/645891 Edited June 18, 20241 yr by Tuskin38
June 18, 20241 yr I stopped the 'Game Bar' processes and it broke me out of the cycle.

June 18, 20241 yr Happened here several times now, I´ll go that Xbox thing (which I hate) and notice every time that I´m not logged in. Log in and then MSFS 2020 opens normally.
June 18, 20241 yr Always run the Windows Store app before MSFS. It will update the XBOX app and get you logged back in. sp

June 19, 20241 yr I got the checking for updates today. Waited about 10 seconds, shut down MSFS, restarted and everything fine..

But also did not work at all several other times 😉 It is a lottery currently, sometimes syncing time helps, sometime logging in and out of Xbox apps help, sometimes killing MSFS and restarting helps, sometimes it needs an additional reboot, sometimes just waiting for 10 Minutes does the trick and sometimes none of the above works. Absolutely annoying, because you never know which situation it is. Besides this: in the official forums several user report huge ongoing traffic during the time they are stuck in the checking for updates screen. Something is really wrong here and the absolute silence from the devs is irritating tbh. For the moment it looks like it is an issue not at all under control from the devs Greetings, Chris AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 2x32GB DDR5 6000MT/s RAM, MSI RTX 4090 Ventus 3X, Windows 11 Home, MSFS2024

June 19, 20241 yr Try to mimic my luck: -Disable Frame Generation mod and replace it with Lossless Scaling -go back to DX11 - Deactivate all default AI traffic and replace it with FSLTL - Disable Hardware Accelerated GPU -using MSFS Addon Linker disable everything (both planes and airports) you're not using at the moment One of these should fix you! Hopefully!

This issue is now so widespread that it's more likely that it was chance which led to your successful restart, not any one or more of your troubleshooting steps 😕 14900ks, RTX4090, 64Gb@6000-30-36-36-T2, Samsung 990Pro 2Tb , Dell G3223Q 32" 4k Gsync + 27" secondary monitor.
