Wow
This is a long thread!
I am on multiple Windows 10 PCs and no problems with the IDE for ~75k line apps.
I only recently upgraded 1 PC to Windows 11, so I have to verify that case.
My use model:
1. Whitelist your install folder -> C:\MyLocationOfPureBasic\*.*
2. Whitelist your dev folder -> C:\MySourceCode\*.*
3. Disable check for new version.
4. Disable History.
Early on this crashed my IDE.
I use fossil.exe for my version control software.
You can too or git or any others.
5. I do not use projects. Instead I prefer explicit #includefiles.
Early on I found projects would crash my IDE if I opened and compiled non-project files.
Without projects, I run with 6 or 7 source files open and compile any files at will.
6. Compiler and IDE options:
Place at the top of your code for documenting.
Important information to verify your code compiles via commandline.
I put example run below.

The nice thing about standards is there are so many to choose from. ~ Andrew Tanenbaum
