OK - here’s one possible solution …
Has anyone tried the Google Maps Mod? I’m wondering if this is responsible for the hangups? I tried it, initially it caused some issues so I uninstalled. This of course may just be coincidental? Update: OK - a result for me! … I failed to remove two lines from the Windows hosts file after I uninstalled the Google Maps Mod - this may have been addressed on newer versions however, I removed the two lines, rebuilt the Windows hosts file, rebooted my PC. All now working fine. I would recommend checking your hosts file.
To restore the previos state, please delete the following two lines from:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file:
127.0.0.1 kh.ssl.ak.tiles.virtualearth.net
127.0.0.1 khstorelive.azureedge.net
I hope that helps some of you!
