I just added a post about using Freerouting. This one is slightly different.
When I started the Freerouting addon, I noticed that several of my components do not transfer. Several online suggestions indicate that a violation may be preventing it.
I have three 74HC40107s next to each other. I can delete one, copy the “transferred” one, and place it there, changing the reference value. This one may transfer, and the other may not.
I have laid out the board in that area. I have deleted and added them back in both the schematic and PCB. Even saving it as another project or restarting the computer doesn’t help. It seems it is one or two, but never all three (When placed near each other).
Any suggestions? Does anyone else have problems with missing components?
Thanks, Vic

If your layout doesn’t pass DRC routing may not work correctly, manual or not. Make sure that the layout matches the schematic by enabling the Parity check in DRC.

Thanks. I ran the DRC several times, and there is an error about a power pin and 262 on unconnected traces. I have also laid out the PC board. IT still loses components. This latest layout has more not showing up

Upload a zipped copy of your project for us to have a look at, it will be far quicker than trying to guess what the problem is that you are talking about.
