PureBasic Forums - English

Well, I think it's time to say thank you to all supporters... it was a big headscratcher, because nothing made sense and then some really crazy coincidence made it even harder (the monitor driver was a wrong track). Still I can't understand, why a network drive affects an IDE. However, solved is ...

There is not really one. The shell extension form 1&1 is the problem.

Can't you map the cloud using WebDav?

Yes, that's possible - and the IDE stays fast using WebDav. That's why I use it meanwhile instead of the app.

But dangerfreak said, "one of the computers was a clean windows installation without anything else" :


Well... nearly clean, I forgot the 1&1 smartdrive - this app was already installed. :oops:



The only gadget which can remotely have an impact on remote drive is the explorertreegadget which ...

Perhaps this will fix the problem.

No change / no effect.

:idea: :idea: :idea:

After several days of search, deinstalling, reinstalling, changing 100s of settings, and finally reinstalling windows the murder is out! I now know for sure, what caused the IDE being so slow. It was a very specific app, that only german users might have, the "1&1 smartdrive ...

I think it is coming from some third party thing, we don't really know which tools you have installed.
It has nothing to do with monitors, or their drivers for sure.
I had some of those strange effects, once a logitech driver next some small desktop icon recovery tool I used, which influenced ...

Why hmmm ?
It's not a joke, Win10XPE started in April 2018, well before Hiren's PE version and it's easy to check by looking at the additional files, for example

Sorry, I knew it wasn't a joke, the "hmmmm" was a "thinking sound" :wink: , because I wanted to build a windows 2 go usb drive.
Anyway ...

When I boot my computer with Hiren's BootCD PE, the IDE also is fast (like hell!).

Just to let you know, Hiren's bootcd PE is based on my open source project Win10XPE (see my signature).
It does not take away from their assembly work with all the integrated tools and their legendary ...

Can you revert to a Windows restore point that was previous to yesterday's experiment? Perhaps remove the second monitor first, then restore.


Nothing works anymore, I don't know why. IDE is slow and stays slow. I already deinstalled my graphics card drivers completely and booted without them ...

Unfortunately I can't switch them - it's a notebook and an additional monitor. Besides that, I don't think it would help, because I disconnected the second monitor and the problem persists.

As I already wrote, I can't reproduce my "solution" anymore, deinstalling the second monitor (in the device ...

Hm, what if...
...you start a remote desktop session (Mstsc) between slow and fast PC?
...you change the compatibilty settings (screen resolution etc.) for the purebasic.exe?

Any differences seen to older PureBasic or the 32bit versions?

Remote: No change
Compatibilty: No change
Older versions ...

Unfortunately I can't reproduce it anymore. Even after disconnecting my additional screen the IDE stays slow.

After disabling and enabling several devices in the device manager, I finally found the problem!

I have two monitors, so in the device manager there are also two monitor devices. I deinstalled one of them, started purebasic and loaded my .pb file (on a computer with slow working IDE). It was FAST ...

Finally I found a (little) clue! I still can't pinpoint the problem, but there is something very interesting:
In Windows safe mode the Purebasic IDE is fast on all computers!

Still investigating...

Yes, I alread tried that, no effect.
