Yesterday I newly installed x-plane 10 and let it update to the new final version 10.50 afterwards.
The download and installation worked well so far but when I tried to start the simulation it seems to stuck on the startup screen. There's no progress in the progress bar for minutes. Then after a couple of minutes windows tells the application don't work no more.
Today I deleted all X-Plane Files and reinstalled it without updating it and it runs fine.
I've got the german DVD Version of X-Plane 10. After installation it tells it's version 10.25.
Its running on a Windows 7 64 bit PC.
My graphics card is a Nvidia Geforce 960.
How could this be ? Is there a bug in Update 10.50 ?
Should I better install 10.45 instead ? But how ?
EDIT: OK, I've read about the same question below now. I've had changed the Installation folder from "Desktop" to "C:\program files" when the update version didn't run. I will try to copy the files to the recommended desktop folder now and try to update again.
I will give a short feedback if it works then.
EDIT: It works ! :)
