dont think so, I tried the reinstall process and crashed anyway. Is an Issue of windows update affecting the proper operation of QOTS. IF it were the PMDG ops ctr and liveries, it would crash anytime with or without the windows updates. But 99% of us are temporary solving the problem by removing KB4038788. So, either end has to do something about it. And I definetly doubt that windows is going to modify and Update just because a few persons that happens to be flightsimmers cant use a program only half of them own. My bet would be on PMDG side. but who knows. By now I just added to my FSX checklist to remove the ill update before running QOTS, everysingle time since also Im unable to stop the download. I can stop the installation, but not the download. cheers

Thing is KB4038788 is still messing somehow with QOTS I have to uninstall it every single time i rebbot/shutdown the system, because no matter what I do, windows always downloads the update. Ive tried all methods that internet suggests on how to avoid automatic windows updates, but so far is useless. It doesnt finalize the installation because I dont reboot the pc without removing said ill update. I managed to be able to use the QOTS but I have to do this every single time I run FSX

my windows doesnt have that pause option. I look for it in internet and it does exist as you describe it. But for some reason I dont have it :(

yes, but I think PMDG is the one that is going to have to look for a compatibility solution perhaps. I dont think windows is going to modify the update just because we simmers are having trouble with our payware planes. I agree is not a problem from PMDG, but from a modification to the OS.

Just found out that, even with the network settings in "metered" Windows still downloads the update. I have to periodically check and delete the update every now and then. this is becoming anoying!

my problem was with fsx and 747 ONLY.. I own 777 for fsx too and did not have troubles. And I own the 737 for p3dv4 and also no problems at all

nop. I look for it and the only solution is to set the wifi conection to "metered". That way the updater wont attempt to download and install the update. w10 does not have an option to manual or automatic installation of updates. Is always automatic. I set the wifi to metered and indeed avoided de update. It says failure to download and install update XX. Now I can shut down or restart the pc without having to deal with it. I hope PMDG guys come with a solution to this update that is messing with our QOTS. im off, is late. Thank you gents!

Now, how darn do I turn off the PC without installing the update again !!??

I Do confirm too. Removing the mentioned update solved the problem. I can load the 747 anywhere again!

Thank you Mark, I will give it a try later.

would you be so kind to tell us which update is it?

Seems That something serious happened then.. Some Windows update... I dont know Lets see who el se come with similar problems

Im glad to hear that Im not alone on this. Thank you

what I find extremly odd is that once I load the plane in MMGL (and now tried MMLP and it did load well) and then move the plane to a super heavy 3rd party scenery like dubai or hong kong or even luxembourg from just sim, and everything keeps working well. Im able to use the plane perfectly. I do have the 777 too and It has no problems at all.

well, just tried deactivating ALL but default sceneries, even orbx global and vector entries and.... noup... nothing, still crashing anywhere else but MMGL also video card drivers were just updated a few minutes ago.

3.00.8415 operations center says is up to date in a green banner

v3

Just tried at default airports KJFK KLAX EGLL and EDDF and all of them crashed, with all 3rd party sceneries deactivated at scenery library. only orbx left active. seems extremly odd that only MMGL is working, and from there moving the plane anywhere without any problems, with or whitout 3rd party sceneries. There was no new scenery installed from sept 12 to 13 the only thing that changed was the date. :(

All of this is happening in FSX, not P3D :)

mmm, so far nothing intentionally on my side, OS has automatic updates though, but last one was like 3 or 4 days ago. I have detected after many trials, that the only airport load the plane safely is default MMGL. From there I can move the plane anywhere in the world and everything seems to be worlking normally Tried to load the plane in ELLX MMMX VHHH UNNT too, all of them with 3rd party sceneries that the plane use to load and fly into without any problems, but no success here, it crashes upon loading Is always working in wondowed mode :) Which is the proper way to do this? Thankyou again!! Alfredo Hernandez

Yes the sim is running as admin I do have antivirus but when I run fsx I put the antivirus to silent mode and the whole folder structure is excluded from any interactivity with antivirus scans I just tried again and this is the new report Source Microsoft Flight Simulator® Summary Stopped working Date ‎9/‎14/‎2017 8:59 AM Status Report sent Description Faulting Application Path: D:\FS10\fsx.exe Problem signature Problem Event Name: BEX Application Name: fsx.exe Application Version: 10.0.61637.0 Application Timestamp: 46fadb14 Fault Module Name: StackHash_cb1b Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Offset: PCH_B5_FROM_USER32+0x0001D9FF Exception Code: c000041d Exception Data: badc0de1 OS Version: 10.0.15063.2.0.0.768.101 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: cb1b Additional Information 2: cb1bddbe375a8eacb1424090c536d9bb Additional Information 3: b6c1 Additional Information 4: b6c194637a81672cd3d3c4f30a91060c Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 23883e2500ccf78b552f4cb221cd9b23 (116444260994) Seems to be different from the last one thank you!

Even tried a full reinstall.. and same results. 777 is working perfectly fine. but I didnt even get to the part when it asks me for the registration key. It simply crashes tight at the moment I click select on the aircraft menu. after many many tries... sometimes loads and works perfectly fine... close the fsx and try to load the plane again and it crashes.. This is very weird. It wasnt happening just yesterday Alfredo H

good day gents Ive been using the 747 for about 2 months without any trouble until today september 13th when it started to crash upon loading. no matter the livery FSX goes crash to desktop. I ran the installer and clicked on repair. tried again and worked perfectly fine. Closed FSX and tried again with the same faulty result on crashing to desktop. Is anyone experiencing this? The only thing that changed from yesterday was the recent update to the 737 that was installed. Other than that nothing was modified. Thanks in advance Alfredo H
