VW2023 SP1 Crashes when closing files (created in previous versions) when closing

Question

I just updated VW2023 to SP1 and then I opened an old file to make some modifications. Then I saved the modified file as a new name. Then hit the red close button and VW2023 SP1 CRASHES. Repeated this several times with the same result.

I have been testing by opening the original file and deleting things in the file to see what is causing the issue. 

Tests:

1. Purged all used stuff.

2. Deleted views

3. Deleted lights

Still cashing on close. The answer is don't close documents.

After at 13 CRASHES I think I found a work around for my projects.

Process:

1. opened the original old document.

2. copied all the objects from the design layer.

3. make a new document in VW2023-SP1 with the same scale and units.

4. paste in place the objects into the design layer of the new VW2023 document.

5. make a new sheet layer with the same DPI

6. copy the desired view ports from the old document into the new sheet later

7. save and close NO CRASH.

 

So the objects, lights and views are good it's something I have no control of that's is very bad. Since most of my projects are simple it's not a tragedy. However for those of you who are doing complex structures with multiple design layers you may have to allow for time to convert old projects. Or - This may also be some VW rule I broke years ago building the original files that is now showing up in the new feature rich VW 2023. Cool features that I have to retrain myself to use.
