Other usual suspects are;
1. Turn the computer off and
on again, or at the very least close AutoCAD and reopen it
2. Move the drawing you’re
working with to the local hard drive and not on the cloud or a networked
location to see if it makes a difference
3. Detach any xrefs to see if
it makes a difference
4. Disable anti-virus or at
least ‘real time scanning’ to see if it makes a difference
5. Make sure you have all the
proper AutoCAD service packs to make sure it’s up-to-date
