Last night as I went to shutdown my desktop computer, there was a notification that an update was ready to be installed.  So I selected install and restart.  After the update I shut the computer down and this morning when I went to go to MSFS 2020 it began to CTD.  I am 3 hours into trying to figure out what is causing the CTD but cannot figure it out.  The only thing that has changed is the update to windows 10.  I have tried tracking down anything that might cause the crashes but can't find whatever is causing the problem.  I have searched YouTube and forums, but no matter what I try it fails to correct the problem.  Anyone have any ideas.  Thanks.

Are you using the nVidia app?  If so, check the MSFS tips and tricks forum.

Is there a fault listed in the event viewer?

Nice profile pic, BTW.  I was a Starlizard IP once upon a time.

Actually yes I am using the app.  I just rolled back the Windows 10 update so it's not that.  I will now follow up on your suggestion.  Yeah, the 141 was my favorite airplane.  FE on the C-130, C-141, and C5a.  Thanks for the tip.  I sure hope I can figure this out.  I just got a Meta Quest 3 for VR and it is incredible.  Gotta get this thing going again.  Thanks a lot.  I'll let you know what I find.  Much appreciated.

I just figured it out.  I was using Process Lasso to help run MSFS 2020 and for some reason, I decided to not run it and all of a sudden it's not crashing any more.  Only took me 5-6 hours to figure it out.  Frustrating, but now it's time to fly!!!!
