The library showing "Initializing" for an extended period can be caused by various reasons. Below are several solutions to help you quickly resolve this issue.

Solution 1: Fix Drag and Drop File Permission Issues

When you cannot drag files from other applications to the Eagle window, it's usually due to insufficient user permissions. By modifying registry information, this issue can be resolved. This operation adjusts the system's User Account Control (UAC) settings.

Solution 2: Fix .NET Framework Issues

When running Eagle on Windows systems, Microsoft .NET Framework is a required foundational component. If .NET Framework is installed incorrectly or corrupted, it may cause the software to fail to start or crash when adding certain format images. Installing or reinstalling .NET Framework can resolve these issues.

Solution 3: Reset Winsock Protocol Configuration

When double-clicking Eagle.exe shows no response, and you see the Eagle.exe process briefly opening and closing in Task Manager, it may be due to Winsock protocol configuration issues. This situation can cause network connection abnormalities, usually caused by software conflicts or viruses. Resetting the Winsock directory can reinitialize the network environment and resolve such issues.

Solution 4: Use SFC Command to Repair System Files

When .NET Framework environment errors occur, it may be due to corrupted or missing important system files, causing applications to fail to run normally. SFC (System File Checker) is a Windows built-in tool that can scan and repair corrupted or missing system files, restoring normal system operation.

Solution 5: Check Windows Environment Variables TEMP/TMP

Accidentally changed system environment variables may cause programs that depend on these variables to fail to run normally, manifesting as software failing to start, crashing, functional abnormalities, or fonts failing to enable. Environment variables are parameters defined by the operating system for external environment information, such as temporary file directories or system paths. Restoring environment variables to their initial settings can ensure normal system and software operation.
