HFSQL: GUI take like forever to load. [SOLVED]

Hi,

Could be my WinDev VM (VMWare), starting with version 24 (and continued in 25) the HFSQL GUI takes all resources on my PC when loading for a long time.

Now all my resources are used to draw the "startup dashboard" ? - I tried to use "modification mode" and Hide all the widgets (or all except one) but they are all back again when I startup HfSQL GUI the second time?!

Are there other that experience this or could it be a local problem on my VM?

Se example below:



(Shows 64% but are taking 100%)


Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

My first suspect is anti-virus.

Make sure that both the windev directory and the project directory are excluded from the AV inspection, as it's often a drag otherwise.

Second suspect is memory.

You are talking about VMs, and if yours doesn't have enough memory for the loading process, you are switching to disk swap, and that is slooooooow. So if the first oen doesn't solve it, try increasing the memory allocated to your VM.

Nope - Switching On/Off antivirus had no effect at all.

I have dedicated 16GB to my WinDev machine.



Since WinDev version 16 I`ve just updated the HF server during installation


So after trying a lot of stuff I finally uninstalled it (And it looked as it was 2 installations, with different names (and perhaps a 32 bit and a 64?))

Rebooted and Re-Installed and now it works as expected
