Hello community,
I’m using Dynamo v.3.6.1 © 2025 Autodesk, Inc. All rights reserved.
Every time I try to install any package, it keeps loading for hours without completing the installation.
Does anyone have a solution, please?

Usually this is because of a popup off screen asking you to approve installation due to the inclusion of 3rd party scripts or libraries; or some similar messaging which is delaying install. Try using Alt+Tab or Win+Tab to find it.

Thank you for your response. I managed to see the popup, but after that the package keeps loading without ever completing

There will be a series of these. One series for the package, and one series for each dependency it has (in this case Clockwork 2.x has a dependency on ironPython2, so you’ll have to approve those if you don’t already have it installed). Note that you might want to consider Clockwork for Dynamo 3.x instead as IronPython2 is not supported and insecure.

I tried to install Python Iron2 because I need the Genius package, and it isn’t compatible with Python 3. That’s why :confused:

It’s fine to have both, and you can continue using the IronPython2 stuff but you need to do so cautiously and with the acknowledgement that it’s risky to do so.

The problem is that I updated Revit, so I had to move to the next version of Dynamo, and now I don’t have any packages. I can’t even install PythonIron2. The same thing happens with the other packages they just keep loading without ever finishing. I have the same version of Dynamo on my personal computer and everything works fine, so I don’t understand why I’m having this issue on the professional computer. I’m not completely sure, but I think this version of Dynamo recognizes that it isn’t compatible with packages that use PythonIron2.

Out of curiosity.

Can you download the packages from
dynamopackages.com?

Some packages don’t install for me neither,
but when they don’t i can’t download them
from dynamopackages.com neither, but when i try later i can.

  1. Restart the CPU.
  2. Open a file browser and navigate to your old Dynamo settings folder (something like `%appdata%\Dynamo/Dynamo Revit\3.*').
  3. Copy the packages folder to your clipboard.
  4. Navigate to your new packages folde (change the 3.x to 3.x+1 in the path above).
  5. Rename the packages’ folder in the new directory to packages_bad’. This will prevent anything therein from being found by Dynamo when you restart it.
  6. Paste the copy of the old packages folder into the new settings directory. This will make Dynamo attempt to load in the old packages as they were.

As long as this was a Revit update (i.e. 2026.0 to 2026.1) and not a new version (i.e. 2025.x to 2026.x) you’ll likely have everything work.

For what doesn’t work you can make a note of it, uninstall it from the Dynamo UI, restart Revit and then Dynamo, search for that package in the package manager, and install the supported build.
