Revit not responding/crash when closing models and session.

[ChrisGamble]

Revit is not responding for me when I try to close models, or when I close a session of Revit, or when I close down Revit entirely with models open.

Have you tried a hammer?  

Seriously, you've stated a problem that could elicit dozens of answers -- all guesses.  I wouldn't even know where to start guessing.  Can you provide greater detail? Maybe starting with the Version of Revit? 

...wild guess: an Automatic Windows Update or Add-in hosed Revit.

All versions. That's really all the details I have, I have no clue either where to start to help you troubleshoot either. But don't sweat it, it may just be my amount of RAM, it runs low when Im closing my sessions out. I mainly see it with 2021. But I thought maybe it could be a quick answer if it was a common thing and it would just be like a clear cache type of thing. But ill figure it out.

No it is not a common thing. Usually, the only common thing between crashing software is User/Human Error...In most cases, a clean uninstall or a format resolves the issue 😆
