My ADE no longer opens on Windows 11. The loading process ends in an endless loop of “Loading library.”

What I have already tried several times:

Uninstalling and reinstalling
Installing ADE 3
Renaming the ADE folder to “My Digital Edition-old”
Deleting the cache and temporary files

What is the solution to this problem?

Dealing with the same issue her stuck on “Loading library” no matter what I try. I’ve also tried reinstalling and clearing everything with no luck. Adobe really needs to address this bug. If anyone finds a workaround that actually works, please share.

Hi Ben,

Adobe DRM combined with ADE is everything about harrassing customers. But I found a solution yesterday. I used the MS-search-engine and screened all files having something to do with Adobe Digital editions. I backed-up my epub-files and deleted all former library and ADE-files. Well: It worked. I created a complete new set-up. This is not a nice solution but it worked.
