The fix is to wait ..

Just to provide some more detailed, contextual information on why this is happening:
I suspect there isn't a technical problem, as such - but that things are taking longer because of the reintroduction of the 'Player History' file; which updates all player histories. The file contains over 3,000,000 database changes and so it significantly slows down the game setup times.
Because some people also mention the step before you select playable leagues, here's a broad overview of how things flow:
In general, the initial step (before you select playable leagues) will visually go to 100% on the progress bar and then process all of the Data Update files. At this stage, it has to read all the files and process the ones that make changes to what leagues are available/playable (because the player is going to then choose which ones to enable for that save). So this step takes longer than vanilla and because the in-game UI shows the progress bar at 100%, people think it is stuck. It is doing its thing. On my machine, vanilla takes about 2-3 seconds to do this step and with the Data Update that is more like 40-45 seconds.
The next bit is where there is a significantly longer wait time because 'Setting up game database' involves reading and executing all of the Editor Data files that make database changes. This was already a high number and is now an extra 3,000,000+ to apply the player histories. There is no magic fix for this going faster - the option people have is to remove/disable this file if it is too long to wait.
If it helps with making a decision about whether to use the file, whilst the game setup process will take significantly longer, once in-game there should be no difference to the game speed.
In your Editor Data folder, you're looking for a file named either 'sortitoutsi.net FM24 Data Update - Player History.fmf' (free version) or 'Classic FM - Player History.fmf' (paid version). Hope that helps.
