makemkv no longer reads Blu-ray ISO files
Recently, MakeMKV has stopped reading Blu-ray ISOs. After selecting the ISO, the program freezes. I've tried it on three different computers and with various ISOs. No luck. Even after reinstalling it on a fresh Windows 11 system, nothing has changed. What could be causing this?

Which version of MakeMKV?
There have been reports of the latest 2.0 version having issues with ISOs, but older versions work fine.

2.0.0
I’ve reinstalled it on three different computers. No chance – it just freezes.

Then I'd recommend picking up one of the 1.18.x versions, if you don't already have it. They're all at https://www.makemkv.com/download/old/ to pull the one you want/need.
You can have multiple versions installed. I have about 8 here, along with the install files for others. You can even run multiple versions at one time, as long as they're controlling different drives.

Hello, and thank you for the tip.
I’ve reverted to version 1.18.4.
It’s now working as it did before.
