Strange pop-up window when start AC16

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:00:03 GMT

My Ac 16 (last update) start to be very slow on start up. Independently opening existing or new project, strange pop-up window appears. ("Interpretation.... Phase 1/1"), look attachment. Any idea?

AC 16 (Last Hotfix); HP Workstation XW9400, W7 x64, 12Gb Ram, 2xOpteron 2.6 Ghz, Nvidia GTX 660Ti

I'm wondering if you have some 3rd party add-ons installed ... such as ArchiTime, etc?

Try quitting AC, then temporarily dragging all 3rd party add-ons (only!) out of your Add-ons folder into a temporary folder, then start AC... are things better? If so, repeat, moving add-ons back into the Add-ons folder one by one until you find the problem.

Cheers,
Karl

Hi Karl,
Thanks for your answer, no I have only standard AC 16 Add-Ons.
I have Cadimage trial Version but I removed all the components, I hope so!
On my nottebook AC 16 works normal.
Should i try to remove some standard Add-Ons anyway or reinstal it?
Any other idea, before try to repair instalation proces of AC16?

Thanks,

Hi Karl,

I remove my problems with standard AC 16 Add-Ons.
I just copy directory ADD-Ons from my nottebook AC 16 (which works OK).
to my PC Add-Ons in Program files\Graphisoft\ArchiCad 16 directory, and now it works with normal speed time at AC16 start up.

Thanks, for support again.

Glad that fixed it. Someone from Graphisoft was going to post that you look at your add-ons folder again, as the icon in that dialog is not a Graphisoft icon. A 3rd party add-on must have been inside a folder within your add-ons folder and causing the problem.

Thanks for posting.
