My MSFS 2020 doesn't shut down the PC, but it does crash during loading, approximately 100% of the time. I know this is a huge programming project, but it is still very disappointing that there isn't a "fall back" provision that allows the software to run, with some limitations, under Win10Pro 2004.
I am running an I5-4690K CPU@3.50GHz with 32 GB installed RAM and 64-bit operating system.
The mobo has a modest Intel HD Graphics4600 and the add-on graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 640. I can see why this hardware doesn't run MSFS 2020 well, but why no "limited" functionality?
I appreciate the warning during loading: "Your computer does not meet the minimum requirements. As a result, you may experience errors during the game." However, it would be most helpful to know what the shortfall is in my computer system, short of buying a complete new system.
Glad to have MSFSX as a fallback.
