MSFS2020 CTD

*** Moved from main support forum to FSUIPC7 / MSFS support sub-forum ***

Hello and a very happy new year.
This is driving me crazy. Almost every time I make some controller key bindings, msfs 2020 crashes to desktop. It's not every time and sometimes it happens immediately, other times I can make new bindings and edit other key bindings for a long time, and then suddenly it happens again. I have paid for and also use FSUIPS. So it's a combination of FSUIPC bindings and msfs bindings that I use. Could it be because of FSUIPC, which I would hate to be without. Is there a kind soul who might have a solution to this. I'm attaching my "ini" file. My "log" file is 11,015 KB and I'm not allowed to attach it!! Thanks in advance.

No. For MSFS CTDs, please use the Asobo forums - this is nothing to do with FSUIPC and I can't really help with this, sorry

Thank´s John.

I had thought about it myself, but wanted to ask here first. I'm a bit afraid that they on the Asobo forums will say it's because of FUIPC. Well, I'll ask there. 🙂

As part of the process to find out what is causing this issue, you need to remove add-ons and add them back one at a time.
But it is not possible for FSUIPC yo cause MSFS to CTD. FSUIPC is a separate application and only communicates with MSFS via the SimConnect API.;
 I have had hundreds of reports claiming that FSUIPC is causing MSFS to CTD, all false/incorrect. 

There are already quite a few similar reports on the Asobo forums, so you should check those out. For example:

If you find what is causing this issue, please update here - it may help others and save me some time....

Perfect John. I'll look into it, and I'll of course update here if/when I find a solution. Thank's a lot.

I think I solved the problem.
I followed this guide:

https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015893879-Checklist-How-to-troubleshoot-crashing-CTDs-issues

and did the following.

#1 SYNCHRONIZE TIME SETTINGS
My time was set to "Adjust automatic daylight saving time" I turned this off.
#2 Then “Set time zone automatically” to ON
#3 Then "Synchronize your clock"

Then this section.
"LAUNCH MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR AND TRY AGAIN"
I bought msfs via Microsoft store, so now I did this.
#1 install the Xbox app to my computer.
#2 launch Microsoft Flight Simulator from the Xbox App. I was able to create a shortcut from the Xbox app that I was using.

For now, this seems to have solved my problem, and I'm happy. 😊👍.
Hope it might help others too.
Kind regards
