    Flight Simulator 2020 Program turns to 'Not Responding' after running for the first time


    I downloaded and installed FS2020 from the Xbox Game Pass App, and it's supposed to install more things when you run the app for the first time. However, it doesn't. Instead, it comes on, and has a black screen. It has a small loading symbol in the right hand corner. It loads for 3-4 seconds then stops, and then stops responding.


    What is the cause of this issue?

    :)

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

    Hi. I have two questions:

    1) I have been using Flight Simulator since its release on Aug 18. Today, I stated the Simulator, it loaded OK, I created a free flight, clicked on Fly, when I tried to use the joystick and keyboard to start and use the simulator, they both did not work
    and would not control anything...they were unresponsive. Checked the Controllers section in the Simulator set up section and the keyboard and Thrustmaster M1600 Joystick were listed and the keyboard and joystick action assignments were still there and responded
    when I clicked a joystick button and keyboard key....the assignment box in the Controller section responded when I pressed a key or button. Rebooted the computer with no change. Do you have any suggestions?

    2) How do I uninstall and reinstall MSFS 2020 in the event that is the only way to fix this problem? Please provide instructions and where to download the MSFS 2020 Premium Deluxe Edition from.

    Thank you...Malcolm
