Can't open file with many layouts

[Nick_Burkett]

I have to open a file to copy their viewports and I have been waiting for an hour and still have the blue spinning wheel for my cursor. Is there anything I can do to be able to open the file or do I just have to continue waiting forever?

@Nick_Burkett ,

Does the file have XREFs in it?

I would try copying the file to your local machine, disconnecting your internet connection, then opening it.

I have many problems where being connected to a network slow down my program. (Also, using good XREF practices could help prevent this in the future)

Best,
