EAGLE Not Closing

Hang-up, or delay close noticeable when firewall blocking

This will save any possible hang-ups when closing the EAGLE application, especially with firewall blocking in place.

Should you have a previous subscription, with a previous install, you need to make a small change too.

  1. Rename/remove the subscription.v1 file, found in \AppData\Roaming\Eagle

For the norm, this delayed close is not a problem.

TIP: If you have clicked the 'close', this sometimes sets off the 'close process'. This can take up to 2 minutes.

If you then start editing during this period, such as schematic or board for example, EAGLE can suddenly close whilst you are in the project.

Best let EAGLE close first, then re-open, or remember to save your project on route.
