The issue:
Block insert with the keyboard shortcut I
This has been so annoying that I often find ways to not insert blocks anymore.
There are work arounds that make the problem go away.
you can use the command. CLASSICINSERT
What I found and used was way to easy and sweet to not document for my own reuse.
I normally just type I and boom the insert dialogue box pops up.
Since 2019 this new Insert command often just hangs. Which sucks.
Autocad has this acad.pgp file that is the old school way to load command line aliases
I found this solution here: (not sure if that link will remain valid, so I just copied the text.)
To edit the pgp file in use by your session, at the command line, type this:
(startapp "notepad" (findfile "acad.pgp"))
this will pop up notepad, where you will search for
I, *INSERT and swap it out with *CLASSICINSERT
while you are there you might as well swap out
AR, *ARRAY with the old school *ARRAYCLASSIC
Save the file and close it.
Back in cad type REINIT
Cheers
