Can't open projects - Stuck on loading

Until last week I had a problem that the hub wouldn’t open a project depending on my network. If I used my home network it wouldn’t open projects, but switching to my phone network it worked.

Now I can’t open any projects, no matter which network I’m connected to.

I’ve already tried unintalling the hub, restarting the computer, opening a project via command line, opening a scene directly, and working offline.

What should I do?

Some apps will not work if the network the device is using has network security settings that are not compatible…

Check the network settings for your home wi-fi?

Hi, thanks for your reply.

The only thing that doesn’t open are the projects from Unity hub, everything else works. I already tried opening them via ethernet connection, wifi, mobile hotspot, offline, I also tried switching my home network between private and public, turning off firewall and all security measures, but nothing seems to work.

Platform: Windows, Linux or Mac?

If it’s an issue that only occurs when on a particular network then the issue is with that network or the settings for it and not with Unity.
Example: Windows can be configured to use different settings for public and private networks

Check your firewall, network settings, proxy, VPN settings - one of those has gone wrong and try adding the process as an exception to the firewall.

Also running as admin helps

PS: I’m new to Unity and there are others on the forum who may know more about this

Hey there,

Thanks for trying to help. But the problem isn’t on a single network. I tried 4 different networks so far and it doesn’t work.

I’m on Windows and I also tried running as Admin, but nothing changes.

i have the same problem, can anyone help?

Hey there, after some time struggling, the Hub started asking me to add a new license every time I open it, so I simply click on the free license and it works fine. I’m not sure what fixed the issue, but I’d recommend reinstalling the Hub

Hey there, I would recommend return and activate license again.

Just had to reply to this; couldn’t find what was wrong for the life of me and did not think of requesting a new license, but after hours of troubleshooting, this worked immediately.

Noticed this happens when the Hub has a update and needs you to allow it to install it, until the update in installed can’t open any projects.

But during the installation of the update a user is asked to log in again so likely got to do with the login.

Fixed:

Hi one of my project always gets stuck in loading screen while opening. I fix it by going to TaskManager and go to the Unity Editor tab in App section. There I find the adb.exe, I End Task it…

Everytime the project stuck, I just end task the adb.exe, and then it opens

Thank you, this fixed it for me.

me too

I had only a few unity versions not loading forever. They just kept spinning on the editor.

Returning and reactivating worked for me too!
