Adobe Digital Editions 4.5.10 not responding in Windows 10

Report · Jan 09, 2019

Having issues downloading ebooks to ADE from library. Updated ADE to 4.5.10 on Windows 10. Renamed My Digital Editions folder to OLD and created a new My Digital Editons folder. Deleted previous downloads. ADE continually fails with "not responding".

Hi.

I had the same problem that ADE 4.5 suddenly did not work. Clicked and clicked, just nothing happened.

I tried reinstall older version using my old downloaded file, and it did work, but the display was horrible, looked like picture rather than texts.

Just now, I reinstalled ADE 4.5 on drive D, instead of the default drive C, and I keep the My Digital Edition library still on drive C.

Now everything is back as before.

You may want to try and see if that solves your problem.

Have a great day.

Just did that and it is indeed working fine. I have been trying to get ADE working for months. Thanks Ray!

It works for me, less than a minute. All by just renaming the existing folder to OLD and then create a new folder with the existing name. Thank you!!!

Hello Guys,

It seems we all have been facing this issue ever since and I have noticed something during the installation. I am one of the culprit who had bad experience with Adobe Digital Edition ever since and I have experence the the application doesnt open up though it shows opened icon in the task bar.

This is what I did to recover the situation.

1) Uninstall the exsisting Adobe Digita Edition.

2) Backup the .pub files and deleted the Adobe digital folder in My Documents. ( default location )

3) Restart the machine.

4) Reinstall Adobe Digital Edition 4.5.10 in " C:\Program Files\Adobe Digital Editions 4.5 " . ( The fishy thing is the application try to install in " C:\Program Files (x86) " folder by default , but i changed the path to x64 folder )

then it worked fine.

I hate to bring this up after 4 years, but this is happening to me on one of two machines. The other has no problem... yet.

I've tried the above, deleted every thing, installed ADE 3.0, changed the install folder, everything. Nothing has worked for more than one download.

Looking for guidance here.
