Ok. 

By "keeps hanging", what do you mean exactly? Digikam shows the main
interface, but freezes momentarily from time to time while browsing or
editing pictures? Or it does't start at all?

If it's the first case, where do you store your database? It's fine if the
pictures are in a NAS, but it works better if the database is stored
locally. To change the location of the database, copy the .db files
(digikam3.db, thumbnails-digikam.db, similarity.db and recognition.db) to
your desired destination, go to Settings in the main menu, Configure
Digikam, Database, and you can enter the path in "Database settings" tab.
When you restart digikam it should be using the new path.

PS: in that link you pasted, it is suggested you create a shortcut (symlink)
to your database instead of copying to your local drive but I don't know if
that would be possible in Windows.
