In the next week or two I should be able to try a fresh install of Windows. Half tempted to get Win 11 while I'm at it.

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
Hi LM gives specifications for minimum Windows version which is Microsoft Windows 10 1809 https://www.prepar3d.com/product-overview/system-requirements/ But we cannot find what Microsoft applications cannot be disabled. Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0 is required. Regards Michel Apparently ...

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
I'm guessing by the lack of responses, no-one has any idea?

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
Nope...still hanging during the load screen.
I get load screen, building scenery files, then it just sits there.
I also burned an activation as the uninstaller did not ask me to deactivate.
Are there any ways to get it to log what it is trying to do during loading?

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
Well, the Windows Store was one of the things I did not disable... Jorgen I fixed it and got that part working again. I'm currently re-installing for about the 10th time. I have P3D V6.1.9.31599 as the install base, in case that matters. I have the 6.1.11 update, but I'm not installing that until i...

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
I figured it out... calc.exe no longer works. Windows Store no longer works. Why? Because these are tied into several system components deliberately, to ensure they are not disabled. If they are disabled. Windows Store and associated apps will not work. It seems something with P3Dv6 build chain/depe...

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
This is just getting weird. This is what ProcMon has to say. This is right before it just hangs. Scenery.cfg does NOT exist.

Hmm... says here that P3Dv6 requires at least Windows 10 1809. I have 2004.

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
I have also disabled a lot of that c*** that MS shoves upon us, and I can only say that I am very happy with Win10 22H2 as I have it now. It's stable as a rock, and the only times I have issues with P3D have been when the problem sits in the chair at my desk. I am certainly not going to Win 11 exce...

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
Yes it is. I'm wondering if P3D is expecting a certain system service to be available. I disabled a lot of Windows junk on my system.

Windows 10
Version: 2004
OS Build: 19041.388
P3Dv5.4 runs without any issues, as does everything else on my system. It's only P3Dv6 that is having problems.
I re-installed the x64 VS2015-2022 C++ runtime just in case. No change.

Re: Minimum Windows Version Required??
Hmm... may be irrelevent. P3Dv5 does the same thing in dependency walker, but it runs.
P3Dv6 builds the scenery database, then just sits there.

Minimum Windows Version Required??
Hi, What is the minimum Windows version required (specifically, BUILD number)? P3Dv6 hangs during load. I ran dependency walker, and it complains about two major issues: 1) Circular reference 2) Missing DLLs Item 1 eventually resolves to kernel32.dll, but it is item 2 that is the real problem: https...

Re: Cannot Update to V6.1.11
Yes, for the pilot records and the load button. Load button https://prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=147027 If I read your linked topic correctly: First that was a problem with P3D5 (not P3D6). Second, it was not a problem with Installing P3D. It was problem with your setup found after installing...

Re: V6 Requires Permanent Internet Connection
Thanks for that!agfreeman wrote: ↑Tue Jul 04, 2023 7:06 pm I've let it run with no-internet. A message pops up on screen saying, to the effect, it can't access the internet and will keep trying. It doesn't stop the sim straight away. I've not established what happens if you don't let it access the internet for a long time.
