Solid Edge stops responding when Parts Library is clicked in .asm
(OP)
Right after I click on the parts library icon while I am in a fresh assembly, Solid Edge stops responding. It did this when I was running SE on windows 7 beta and still does this on the full release professional version. I am still using windows 7 and have changed the compatibility to Windows Vista and have gone into each application in the file locations to run as administrator and compatibility with vista. I have installed and reinstalled SE v20 three (3) times now and still the same problem. My computer meets the system requirements and SE worked perfectly when I had vista on this computer. I have saved the parts on a flash drive and opened them on another computer with SE v20 on it at work and they open fine. I make an assembly on that computer with the same parts and it works fine. Then I open the assembly and modify parts on my personal computer and it works just fine. But when I click on that blue icon to import more parts..BAM.. it freezes again. There is nothing like this problem that I have found anywhere so that makes me think that it has something to do with my install of windows 7. What should I do now?

Win 7 Prof does have a XP emulation mode have you tried running using this?

"The current release of Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology has been certified to run on the following:
* Windows XP Professional operating system (32-bit or 64-bit)
* Windows Vista Business or Vista Enterprise operating system (32-bit or 64-bit)
* Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate, or Windows 7 Enterprise (32-bit and 64-bit). Requires Solid Edge ST2 MP1 (102.00.01.004) or later If possible
* Internet Explorer 7.0 (IE 6.0 minimum)".
it should run on windows 7 prof. We run SE ST v20 on our work computers right now and they have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and they work just fine. Their compatibility mode is windows vista as well.

Which are you running since in your OP you clearly state V20.
We had no end of trouble with parts library and gave up on it in the end - not sure if at V19 or 20.

This has caused issues in the past and the recommendation is to have it turned off.
Also ST2 did not properly support Win7 until one of the Maintenance Packs (1 or 2 I can't remember) so make sure you have the latest MP installed too.

The program Edge.exe version 102.0.0.116 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel.
Process ID: 778
Start Time: 01cb29319fcf4aff
Termination Time: 16
Application Path: C:\Program Files\Solid Edge ST2\Program\Edge.exe
Report Id:
So I am thinking this is more a windows problem than a SE problem. I am thinking about formatting my hard drive and reinstalling Windows 7.

It can cause all sorts of issues.

If so its not that the Parts Library is looking into a network folder or somethething similar that no longer exists.
I have seen this cause long timeouts in certain situations. But never a complete hang.

- Turn OFF UAC
- Right click on SETUP and choose "Run as Administrator"
UAC can be turned back on after install, but should be turned back off when you perform an uninstall.

Right click on Part Library background area (not on the file names),
then choose Preview from a drop-down menu.
Switch preview format from interactive to bitmap.
