AutoCAD 2027 freezes on the Start tab.

[Alexander_Chernikov]

Hello!

A fresh installation of AutoCAD 2027 (from the AutoCAD Mechanical 2027 package)—even without references to any existing files— takes over two minutes to launch, hanging on the "Start" tab.
Is there any way to fix this without completely disabling the tab?

It is quite useful for my workflow, but such a long wait for a response is unacceptable.

Hi,

@Alexander_Chernikov 

• Check if you have the latest software update  AutoCAD 2027.1 Update.
• It's recommended to clear recent documents list from Options > Open and Save tab, and set the Number of recently-used files to 0 .

Thank you, @imadHabash 
I missed the release of update 2027.1.
After installing it, the problem disappeared without resetting the recently-used file count to 0.
