Please keep the discussion on topic. The moderators have removed my original detailed problem description, but this thread is about the Aerosoft A320 Professional series on Prepar3D v5. Aerosoft has been notified of the issue and they will fix it on their own schedule. Right now the only relevant information that remains in this thread is whether there is a dev or beta channel build of Windows 11 that fixes the issue. The canary channel has a fix, but it is unsuitable for everyday use as it is unstable and changes often. Switch to the canary channel in Windows update -> insider program. Be warned that you cannot change it back.

I can report success with build 27788, clean OS+P3Dv5 install.

Has anyone else confirmed success with build 27774 yet? I am on the Insider Preview as well, but on the Release Preview channel. Hopefully MS can backport the fix to 26100 (24H2)

I also opened a support ticket #36524 for this issue. I received a reply stating that the issue has been forwarded to the project team.

I have managed to get the Aerosoft buses working with Prepar3D version 4.5. For anyone who intends to use them in Windows 11 as well, I suggest to do the same. The hassle of having 2 separate P3D installs makes setup more convoluted, but it outweighs the security risks of using an outdated version of Windows.

Please, I have notifications turned on for this in case anyone comes across with additional troubelshooting steps or potential fixes. I'm well aware that this is an old product not currently in active development, I'm keeping this up in case someone finds a workaround or a setting change that could make this work. Please keep the Aerosoft bashing to Reddit and Discord.

After weeks of troubleshooting and three clean OS installs on two different computers I have determined that this is a compatibility issue with Windows 11 version 24H2. I request developers at Aerosoft to look into this, because on Windows 11 24H2 the addon is unplayable.

Hello, Recently I have had trouble using the Aerosoft A320 series on P3D, because as soon as I load the sim, it shuts down, as if it had crashed. However, there is no application crash log recorded in Event Viewer. The sim loads all the scenery and goes through the normal loading process, and for about 30 seconds I can see the cockpit with blank screens and the engine sound playing on loop. However I cannot interact with anything and the sim shuts down shortly. This happens on any A320 variant at every airport. I'm using Prepar3D v5.4 on Windows 11 build 26100. My graphics drivers are up to date. I have tried completely uninstalling the A320 variants and deleting C:\P3Dv5 Addons and also Aerosoft folder from My Documents. I have also tried uninstalling the Visual C++ redistributables and letting the installer reinstall them. The issue occurs whether or not RAAS is installed. What other steps I can take, are there any logs that I could forward?
