Product has slowed down dramatically

Post by hfig5297 »

HI, since the last two updates, the product seems to have drastically slowed down.

I use to be able to keep 4 or 5 XnView open and move between then screens and folders with ease, now it can take as long a 30 to 45 sec .

The drive on which the files are access shows no lag time at all if using file explorer, any suggestions ?

Hi Thanks for the help

As stated i could have had 4 to 5 XnViews open at one time. Now that is not possible as moving file or opening them takes longer than 45 sec. I then tried to use the program with just one XnView open, but that as well seemed to lock up and take more than a minute to clear . Looking at the task manager it using a lot of memory 8,464,3 MB, my installed ram is 16 GB using Windows 11.

Separate instances of XnView MP ((ZIP versions?), or tabs open in a single XnView MP instance??

thank you, I was not aware of the tabs on top. They were extensive, and closing them all out cleared up the problem. Very much appreciated, thank you
