jrdale210 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Having a community folder really quite full, mixture of airports, planes and various electronic add-ons I wonder if pilots have any insight into add-ons that they have found really slowed the landing time when starting up the program. I have had a few CTDs lately and then of course by doing SAFE mode startup I can see the big difference between the safe mode and normal mode. Sometimes I only see the slowdown after programming a particular IFR flight and then the load up takes so long I have to go and make a coffee. Just interested to hear if anyone has done some COMMUNITY cleanup and found particular add-ons which are really slowing the startup.

stinger2k2 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I did a little experiment a few days ago. Instead of firing up the sim soon after booting up the pc I waited until the hard drive activity light had gone quiet. The sim booted up a lot quicker. That said it's not a fast startup by any stretch. Something we have to live with. As you say, chill out and get a brew while you're waiting. I haven't noticed any addon in particular which causes this. These things normally get picked up quickly by the downloaders.
