PB Windows IDE not responding for a long time

[Demivec]

So for the moment, how can I remove the entry from the database? I don't know where it's stored.

It's stored in the IDE's preferences file.

A habit to get into: Test the presence of the file before trying to open it, it is much faster.

Code: Select all

Debug FileSize("\\test\hello\world.txt")   ; -1 file does not exist

If you don't do this, a local network can take up to 20 minutes to respond if there is no local name resolution system (it looks crashed, but it isn't)
Look up NetBIOS over TCP/IP to understand how names propagation works (or not) on a local network in the absence of local DNS.

I have wrote a tool to remove netwerk files from purebasic preferences

So it's purebasic.pref in C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\PureBasic
