Everything doesn't start for a while

Post by oktober »

Hi at all,
i start everything each win startup as service, and i set a hot key (CTRL+SHIFT+F) to start everything.

Sometimes, when i press CTRL+SHIFT+F, nothing happens. So i try to repress same hotkey (once or twice). After +/- 60 sec, 3 windows appears.

Anyone has same issue?

Many thx.

Are you saying that you're manually starting the service each time?

Or you have the service running all the time, & automatically, whenever the computer is running (which would be more typical).


It sounds like your disk is being indexed & so the GUI window doesn't appear until it has finished that. If you're starting the service manually each time you start your computer, that may account for what you're seeing?

Hi,

i don't manually starting the service each time. it starts automatically, whenever the computer is running.
I know the time everything takes to index the HDD (also if i press my hotkey to view everything window, it appears with "scanning folder..." message in status bar).

I mean, sometimes (during the working day), when i press my hot key to start everything windows, nothing appears (it seems everything is busy for something).
After 2-3 minutes window magically appears.

Hi,

same thing here,(during the working day), when i press my hot key to start everything windows, nothing appears (it seems everything is busy for something).

After 2-3 minutes window magically appears. No matter if i double click on the icon, everything seems frozen.

I am using Version 1.4.0.716b (x64)

bye
