Mostly over the weekends after MSFS2024 was released, when lots of people are using both sims

MSFS2020 Steam  // Rig: Corsair Graphite 760T Full Tower - ASUS MBoard Maximus XII Hero Z490 - CPU Intel i9-10900K - 64GB RAM - MSI RTX2080 Super 8GB - [1xNVMe M.2 1TB + 1xNVMe M.2 2TB (Samsung)] + [1xSSD 1TB + 1xSSD 2TB (Crucial)] + [1xSSD 1TB (Samsung)] + 1 HDD Seagate 2TB + 1 HDD Seagate External 4TB - Monitor LG 29UC97C UWHD Curved - PSU Corsair RM1000x // Thrustmaster FCS & MS XBOX Controllers

Make sure you have your system clock settings with an up-2-date sync with the MS NTP servers.

Go to Settings / Time & Language / Date & time  and make sure you enable, at least:

"Set time zone automatically"

"Set the time automatically"

and then hit the "Sync now" button...

 

 

Flying gliders since 1980

Flightsimming since 1992

AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

For me the problem was solved by moving the folder "fs-base-nav" to another, tempory location. Then start msfs and the sim will hopfully update and load. After that, shut down msfs and move the folder "fs-base-nav" back to the "OneStore" folder and when asked if you want to replace existing files chose "no".

My problem was solved by turning the time to on on my computer. It was not a network problem after all, at least for me.

For those of you who are having long loading issues, below video might help. A few steps you can take first to see if it solves the issue. It worked for me. I am flying again.

 

 

FINALLY had a normal start-up and flight with FS2020 - this is the first time since the release of FS2024 that I have been able to fly on the first start-up.  Some days I wasn't able to go beyond the "Updates" screen or it just crashed continuously out of FLY from the flight planner.

Here's hoping that whatever issue they were dealing with are resolved.

I am good now as well
