Probably have the issue with Windows Defender/Security identifying Traffic Controller as a threat and deleting the Traffic Controller .exe file. Do this. Re-download Traffic Controller from AIG. Extract as normal but before you run it, set Windows Security to ignore that folder. It will then work as normal. Don’t delete the original folder as it will have all your downloaded aircraft.

The key phrase. Give CCleaner unrestrestricted access to fix every single reg “error” it finds and it will break Windows and apps. Guaranteed. Never, ever delete a reg entry simply because CCleaner says you should. Use it with discretion after uninstalling apps (deleting only that apps reg entries) and other entries where you know that the reg entry relates to a now redundant change you have made.

No, I chose the clean install option and there was no checkbox for the app. Only the usual main driver, audio driver and phys x or whatever it is called. I selected ONLY the main driver and the audio driver and got the app for free. 😡

As for me, installed OK but super annoyed that NV force installed the App. I don't want the app, don't need the app but now I have the app. Maybe I missed a checkbox, but they certainly did not make it obvious. The app is buggy and cr@pware, nothing more, nothing less. Also super annoying, the app is defaulted to optimise games. So if you are not careful, and uncheck the relevant boxes, all your carefully tuned settings get nuked. Driver seems fine in MS2020 though. The advice to not install new GPU drivers unless there is documented benefit to the sim is usually wise (don't fix something that is not broken) but keep in mind that this DLSS4 stuff (and the rubbish NV app) is in it's infancy and NV are improving/debugging with these driver releases, so updating the GPU driver regularly makes sense if you are taking advantage of FG and DLSS "tech", and/or running a 5000 series card. Curious why you use Preset D for DLSS-RR? I have this at default. The rest of my settings mirror yours mostly.

If you are running DLSS4, makes a lot of sense to upgrade to this driver as it is early days for DLSS4 and the launch drivers have thus far not been good. With this driver, I have made the switch to DLSS4. Not by using the NV App and not by using DLSS Swapper. Personally, don’t think DLSS4 (Preset K) is any better that DLSS version 3.7, let alone subsequent versions, but hopefully DLSS4 will continue to improve over time.

@MrBitstFlyer please can you let me know how you use DLSSTweaks to enable the Ultra Quality setting?

To correct what has been said in this thread a few times, and the cost of a Navigraph sub aside, the TDS GTN 750 NXi is the cheaper option. I bought it a long time back. Once-off payment and then an optional upgrade to the Pro version which I have. For those that advocate the PMS version is cheaper, how many times are you going to renew that annual license……….? 😉 The TDS is a brilliant piece of software, makes several otherwise very average GA aircraft something more special.

2020 running as good as ever. Running the 566.36 NV driver and DLSS 3.7.10.0. No way am I upgrading to the half baked DLSS “4” and even less baked 572.16 in all its hotfix “glory”. Oh, and the NV App is just crudware. Sometimes, when I read these forums, I wish you could all come see my PC running MSFS…. liquid smooth, no stutters, native FG and DLSS 0.85 ULTRA quality and ZERO ghosting on speed tape or anywhere else, in 4K glory. Always happy to share my settings IF your system resembles mine. In a nutshell, MSFS is as good as it ever has been.

The files with extension .dlsss are just back up files. When you use DLSS Swapper, it backs up the two original files with this extension name before swapping them. You can safely ignore or even delete those two files as previous versions of the dlss files are available to download (or you can use DLSS Swapper) if you ever want to revert. The sim outright ignores all files with the .dlsss extension. 😉

Hmmm, not sure what you have there but for MSFS2020 there should only be two files… nvngx_dlss.dll nvngx_dlssg.dll Hover your mouse over these files and it will show you which versions they are. You only place these two files in that one folder. Not anywhere else. There is a third dlss file doing the rounds that is not used by the sim in any way and should be ignored, nvngx_dlssd.dll. Don’t place this file in your sim.

Just imagine how us Msfs2020 users feel. 🤣

No, it is set and forget.

For Steam it is a usually in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Microsoft Flight Simulator Inside this folder you will find the two dlss dll’s that can be swapped out. Even if you have your sim on a different drive, unless you also installed Steam to a different drive, this is the typical default location.

In other words the NVidia app is seriously bugged. I won’t be installing that rubbish.
