I’m hearing about more cases of 2022 latest update that “broke my dynamo”. The symptoms include freezing up when adding nodes and\or nodes not displaying and you only see wires.
Hello @byousif - Do you have reproducible steps that show us these problems? If so, we can take a look to help resolve

Sounds like an add-in conflict. Disable all Revit add-ins and see if the behavior resolves.

I believe this issue only occurred after intalling the latest Revit update where Dynamo was working fine before.
I asked my client Ed to respond to this post directly and maybe you can contact him and help out? I tried all I could think of (except for the addins removal).
What we found is was an admin causing the Problem. Thanks for your help.

Funny… I just helped a colleague in support diagnose the same. Microdesk may have an update or may need to be informed of the issue - if you have a contact there you may want to reach out so you can get the benefit of both tools.

Hi all,
Could I ask what the solution was here? I’ve disabled all add-ins for 2022 and it did not fix the issue. I’m not sure what “Admin causing the issue” means?
Would appreciate any assistance.
Restart the cpu, keep all the add-ins disabled, start Revit, open a new file from any template, launch dynamo, open a graph to reproduce the issue and run it, close Dynamo, close Revit, and then post the Revit journal and Dynamo Log file back to this thread so we can confirm no add-ins are an issue.

You might not have disabled ALL addins. There is more than one folder where they can be found:
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins
C:\Users<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Revit\Addins
Once you move all contents out (or rename those folders), Dynamo should work, but the issue remains that you can only have one thing: Dynamo or the addins.

Hi @jacob.small and @byousif , thank you for the responses.
It was actually quite urgent, so I followed someone’s suggestion of uninstalling and reinstalling 2022 without the .1 update which did the trick. I know this isn’t the best approach, but it does allow me to work with Dynamo without any issues for now.
Thanks again for the responses.
Does anyone know if Autodesk ever fixed this update? I had one of my personnel install this update and it of course broke Dynamo. It also appears that the 2022.1.3 hotfix did not fix this issue as well.
is there a simpler fix than uninstalling or disabling revit and everything else etc - our IT is locked down pretty tight - i dont have all the necessary permissions skills to all that and our IT guy is too busy /not particularly willing
i could possibly reinstall dynamo but cant figure out how to do that - the github zip stuff is above my skill level , its all gibberish to me
Don’t uninstall anything. Modern software is a REAL pain to reinstall, besides there is very little chance it would fix an issue.
Instead, Move all the contents of this folder to the desktop:
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\20xx (folder of version of issue)
I said MOVE to desktop because it has to be empty. Test now. Is Dynamo working? if so, then move files back into that addins folder one by one and test, until you find the culprit that causes a conflict with Dynamo.

thanks for the reply - i managed to find this method on another thread and identified the addin causing the problem CTC bim manager suite from the autodesk app store. weirdly i have this installed on my works - working from home pc and it caused issues but i also have it installed on my work , office based pc and it doesnt cause an issue???
It’s not one addin by itself, but a conflict of two of them. Do you have the exact addins on both computers? same versions? same .NET and python etc. ?

I have the same problem. Moving all Addins to a different folder didn’t make any difference.
Post your Revit Journal so we can review or reach out to Autodesk Support directly via manage.Autodesk.com.
I can’t post since I am new and the Forum is not allowing me to load. But here’s a copy of what I found.

Need the full journal to find out if there is an issue there. Best to restart the CPU, then launch Revit, start a new project from no template, launch Dynamo, quit dynamo, quit Revit, and then grab the journal and the log. if your system locks up entirely during the process force quit Revit and grab the journals and Dynamo log at that point.
To enable the transfer I bumped your trust level up to 1 in the hopes of getting an attachment through, but if that doesn’t work you can host on another platform and link it here (ie: onedrive, Dropbox, box, google drive, etc.).
