My apologies if a thread similar to this has already been posted. I have, in fact, done searches and I have found a few threads similar to this but those threads seem to be outdated, so I thought I'd make a new thread.

Anyway. I have the current version right now, that being 0.72. I've been trying to load the Object Workshop. I have been loading the docked version, not the windowed. For the first few tries, it would freeze at 19% and the program would become unresponsive.

I would wait patiently for the first couple of times but then I decided, maybe I needed to restart. So I did. Doing the same process again, I almost thought restarting actually worked. It loaded all the way until 96% and then the green loading bar was full. However.

It emptied and it read, "0% Please Wait."

And so I did. I waited for about 30 minutes and I thought that this couldn't be right so I tried again. Same thing. Except this time, I didn't wait for 30 minutes.

Do I really have to wait longer? I mean, I'd actually be willing to wait if I knew it would actually load fully. But I'm wondering, why is it that it's taking THAT long? I could easily load objects and packages in the Wizards.

Also, this installation isn't my first ever installation of SimPE. I have installed it in the past, then uninstalled it. Then recently reinstalled it. Could this be the cause of the problem? (Side note: I've had the same problem with my previous installation, but with the Neighborhood browser.)
