For information: Our AC18 stuck on the 'Starting ArchiCAD' after the 5100 update was applied. All attempts to repair AC18 and all computer maintenance failed to resolve the issue.

Problem only solved after uninstalling AC18 and effecting a fresh install, and fresh update to v.5100

Dear All,
We investigated the problems and please see the replies below:

- In case of mhoude, a 3rd party program (Antidote) caused the freezig of ARCHICAD.
- In case of PB, a reinstall of the WIBU 6.20 driver solved the issue.

I just installed 5100 and opening ArchiCAD 18 took ~10 minutes to get to the Open dialogue. Opening the file itself took the normal time. Closed ArchiCAD and reopened in the normal amount of time to Open dialogue and the file. Not a smooth transition, but it works now.
