Editor stuck loading at 73%

Hello, I am having an issue where my editor gets stuck loading at 73%. I have left the project to open for 7 hours to no avail. I also have narrowed down the issue to a blueprint after reading this article: Freeze at initialize 73% - Programming & Scripting - Unreal Engine Forums, but have been unable to find a fix. in order to open my project and work on it I first have to rename the blueprint in question, load the project, rename the blueprint back to the correct name, then fix every reference that blueprint had, its very tedious and I have no clue as to why the blueprint is causing these issues, thank you for the help in advance!

ok my issue was that this blueprint is a child of a C++ class that has an instance of this blueprint and it was looping. it would be nice if UE4 could catch things like this and provide a warning though

I ran into the same issue (at 73%). For me it was adding a child widget to my main HUD. I made a call in the playercontroller to get a reference pointer to the new child. It might be a sequence of calls between the various start up constructrs. I pulled the HUD back from a prior save and all good.

Mine worked just by restarting my Laptop. Never happened before and never happened since
