Thre are a number of troubleshooting steps to try out
1. Start up qgis using the -noplugins switch or remove all installed
plugins or test removing one at a time.
2. Backup the config file and start with a new empty config.
Qgis 2.10 is well out of support, is there any reason you can't migrate
to 3.0?

hello Phil,
I did open the project file in Word, 2033 pages, and found 13
instances referring to the dxf file. Hard to say if anything was wrong
there, nothing obvious. At least to me. Some other research I did
indicates that maybe there is an authentication problem, not sure just
what that boils down to.
I don't think the dxf file is the problem. I renamed it and bypassed
it on the startup routine which the program accepted but it still
seized up with a spinning cursor. Some things still function, such as
modifying the properties of a layer , Etc. But the screen is blank and
nothing can be saved.
For some time I have noticed that loading a project file bogs down for
a while and then would resume to completion. Now it bogs down and
blows up. The key message seems to be unknown exception.
Some older project files do load successfully however...

Can you open a copy of the previous project file in something like
notepad and see if anything obvious can be fixed and or removed in
relation to the DXF layer?

*Subject:* [Qgis-user] Unable to load project
Hello All,
Bad News. I am unable to load a project that normally works with
no problems:
1. QGIS 2.10.1, Windows 7.
2. Project starts to load, loads many layers . . .
3. halts loading "point Entity", a DXF file
4. the DXF file was renamed to trigger the Handle Bad Layers service
5. this was bypassed but project loading still fails to complete,
cursor spinner on constantly
6. exiting with Save triggers "Unknown Exception"
7. the project file is trashed to 0kb
8. Exiting without Save is OK but no project can be loaded
9. Restoring previous project file versions yields the same results
10. Loading some other projects works but may have cursor spinner
Any ideas what is going on here? I have rebooted the computer.
Thanks very much . . . .
Cheers . . . . . Springfield Harrison
