Whenever I try to open the profile view openroads crashes. (crashes when the command says select view and I click into the box to see it)
I created a profile from my horizontal alignment and then drew a new vertical over the profile. complexed the vertical and then closed the file. Opened another file that had the alignment referenced so I could draw my corridor. Decided to open my profile view since I wasn't necessarily using the active profile to create my corridor and I wanted to click on the profile in the profile view. when I went to open the profile view openroads crashed/froze. I closed the program and went back to my alignment file and went to go open my profile view and it crashed. I delete the vertical alignment and profile then create a new profile from the horizontal alignment and go to open the profile view it crashes.
I had this same problem all yesterday and then miraculously this morning after leaving my PC off all night openroads seemed to fix itself. I could open the profile view without it crashing. I drew a new vertical alignment in it and closed the file and went to my corridor file where I opened the profile view where it proceeded to crash. Went back to my alignment and it would still crash. I had a coworker try to open the profile view on his computer and it crashed.
I'm not sure why it worked this morning when it was crashing all yesterday. I did nothing different from what I'd normally do. It wasn't until I went into another file that it was referenced to and tried to open the profile view that it crashed for all my files in that workset. The 3D and cross section views work but not the profile.
I didn't want to export my alignment and create a new brand new file since it was referenced to a few other files. I did find a "solution" that kind of worked. I unruled my alignment and recomplexed it. That seemed to work and allow me to view my profile. thought it is named something else from what it originally was. I'll have to see how that messed up my other references. But so far if I go into another file that has my referenced alignment and open the profile view it won't crash anymore.
True, if it was preferences it would just be happening to yourself. If it is also affecting files it is referenced into, there is definitely an issue with that alignment.

Before "breaking" the alignment, try using the Simplify Geometry command. It will remove all external relationships, but keep any relationships built to it intact.
