<p>The Windows version of Qgis allows you to run multiple versions on your computer side by side. I personally haven't used the Windows version for several years so I can't be sure if you will have any issues running 3.0 alongside your current version. I run
many of the editions I have in virtual machines. If your PC has 8 GB or more of memory, or if you have access to another computer that can run Linux, then you can try it out in a Linux virtual machine or physical computer environment without disturbing your
current installation.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>hello Patrick, thanks for your ideas. I will try the no plugins option.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The program will run with no project loaded and it will run older project files but has problems with newer ones for the same project.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I can load an older project file and then add newer layers to it and reconfigure them, Etc. This is very tedious but will amount to a recovery. It is better than starting from scratch for sure. But will the same problem reoccur?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I have contemplated migrating to version 3 but I'm always leery of upgrades of anything as they often bring problems with them. In this list I notice many references to installation issues and things not running. 2.10 is a devil I know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>can I expect any difficulties installing 3.0 +?<o:p></o:p></p>

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

<p>hello Phil,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Some older project files do load successfully however...<o:p></o:p></p>
