RoboHelp 7 Takes 30 minutes to Load Project

I am working on a large project and I'm finding that since
upgrading to version 7 my project is taking 10 times longer to
load. When I select teh project I want to work on it takes half an
hour for the program to be ready for me to get to work. Is this
something other people are experiencing or just me?
The project file is around 65 megs and I'm running on over 3
gigs of memory and a 3.4 processor.
Any ideas on how I can speed this up?
Thanks

WOW!!!!
Thanks Peter! I created a backup and then deleted the two
files you suggested and it flew. The project was up and running in
30 seconds.
Thank you so much. You just saved me 45 minutes a day.
Everything seems to be exaclty the same, but is there
anything that might be affected due to the loss of those two files?
Thanks again

  • Firefox takes minutes to load upon starting up and changing web pages

    When I open firefox in Windows Vista, it takes minutes(sometimes up to ten) to start up.Once firefox has loaded and I go to visit another web page, it takes minutes to load that web page. I downloaded Firefox 3.6.7 when it first came out, and it just recently started doing this. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, but this did not work. It is not a problem with my internet connection or operating system, because internet explorer and safari only takes seconds to load up and load web pages. I have run various scans to see if it was a virus or a bug, but nothing came up. How do I fix this, because using Internet Explorer is really getting on my nerves?

  • VI with Several XControls on nested tabs takes minutes to load in LabVIEW 2013

    Hello all,
    I have a VI in LabVIEW 8.2 that includes more than 400 Xcontrols in nested tabs, which opens in seconds (very fast). The code was upgraded to LabVIEW 2013 and now the VI takes minutes to open and in the meantime LabVIEW is unusable with the CPU at 100%.
    I am wondering if anybody has experienced this behavior with Xcontrols.
    Thanks.

    Please note that I am working with jarcTek on this project where we inherite that UI with so many XControls instances.
    It is not like there are a lot of different XControls (there are a total of about 10 different type of XControls), but there are a lot of instances of these XControls (several 100) in 3 levels of nested tabs.
    Yes, we both had the time to re-recompile the source code between the two posts that jarcTek made. The various XControls are stored in 4 different llbs. Most of the XControls that have a lot of instances are actually pretty simple (very little code there). Finally, yes the VI property  (or the XControl library property general settings) indicate that the code is in LabVIEW 2013 [see image below]. 
    You are correct, the delay occurs after the VI is loaded from disk. The loading time is fine (we see the loading progress/dialog since there are a few 100s vis to load with that main UI), but after that everything hangs for several minutes (cpu peg at 100%). We run the Desktop execution toolkit, and we can see a lot of XControl events (1000s) that are fired during this time.
    FYI: Unloading (closing) the VI is also very slow.
    To put this in perspective, In LabVIEW 8.2 the same code is ready to run immediately after the UI opens.
    Thanks

  • Firefox web surf slow. Pages take minutes to load,and sometimes they dont load at all. I have win xp sp3. Thanks

    Hello. I have windows xp sp3,and latest firefox, i think 26. And sometimes, not all the time,but most of it,my web browsing is so slow, i mean google search,web pages load,etc. Like minutes before it loads,and when finally does,sometimes i see only text ,in web pages,not images.
    I have speed,as i can download torrents with 7 Mb/sec. Just web surfing is slow,painfully slow.
    My question is,if you bear with me, is this a browser problem or a windows one ??
    (i dont exclude even the possibility for the nice guys at microProose to inject a thing in windoze to make it slow,so we upgrade,in the light of recent discoveries:) .
    thanks in advance.

  • I have windows 7, perfect connection to the internet, but it takes forever for firefox to load pages, sits and thinks for minutes before loading. what can i do?

    i have windows 7, the internet connection is perfect, i use other computers with no problem loading pages. With this pages take forever to load, worse then if i had dialup. I think internet explorer is the same, but i don't use it and it's very out of date. I tried a system restore, it worked for a day then back to the same thing. Pages take minutes to load, any page. some time out. i don't know what to do next, i've cleared history, cache, cleaned the computer up not sure where the problem is or what it is.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Open project was canceled or RoboHelp was unable to load database

    I have Robohelp 2002r2 and am creating Robohelp HTML help.
    The project was ok yesterday but today when I try to open it I get
    the error message "Open project was canceled or RoboHelp was unable
    to load database". I tried the solutions in the knowledgebase
    (rb_3245) but still no luck. I can't even create a new project
    either or I get the same message. Anybody know what to
    do????

    Welcome to the forum.
    The message is usually easily dealt with. I haven't checked
    the article as you didn't include a link but I'm guessing it
    involved deleting a couple of files and then using the HHP file to
    open the project.
    What is more worrying is that you cannot create a new
    project.
    Have you tried opening one of the supplied sample files?
    Are your projects stored locally and not on a network?
    Have IT given you a new profile to log on with?
    Has anything else changed in your environment?

  • Project Error: Open project was canceled or RoboHelp was unable to load database

    Hi,
    I checked an HTMLHelp project out of SourceOff Site (SOS),
    then attempted to open it locally with RoboHelp 5 when I got the
    error message: "Open project was cancelled or RoboHelp was unable
    to load database."
    I found the TechNote for this error message (rb_3245) which
    said to delete the .xpj and .cpd files, then right-click the HHP
    file and click Edit to open the project. This worked fine for
    opening the project, however the Primary Layout Source defaulted to
    WebHelp. I reset the Primary Layout Source to HTMLHelp which caused
    all of the graphics in the project to not display. I fixed this
    issue, compiled the Help, and all appeared to be fixed. I checked
    the project back into SOS to back it up. This morning, I checked it
    out of SOS and tried to open the project locally again, only to get
    the same error. I closed the project, undid the check-out, and
    asked another writer to check-out the project then open it locally
    to see if he got the same error. He did not get the error.
    I am not sure what could be wrong on my computer that is
    causing this error. I had no problems opening and using this
    project until yesterday and I made no file name or path changes to
    the project. Any ideas on what may be wrong?

  • I have totally "uninstalled" what I had and then reinstalled the newest  version of itunes.  Still......  First, when I click on the itunes icon to load it takes the program anywhere  from two to three minutes to load.  None of my other programs take this

    I have totally "uninstalled" what I had and then reinstalled the newest
    version of itunes.  Still......
    First, when I click on the itunes icon to load it takes the program anywhere
    from two to three minutes to load.  None of my other programs take this
    long.
    When in the itunes program I can be moving around in my library and itunes
    when choosing a song or songs, choosing file, edit, etc,. whatever command I
    choose it just suddenly stops.  I can issue five commands and watch each one
    respond in 30 second to two minute intervals.  I can issue several commands,
    even shutting down, and it will do all but takes several minutes to do so.
    My itunes program was working fine when this problem suddenly arose.
    Terry

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Project taking 5 minutes to load

    Hi,
    I just publisehd a course with 190 slides. It has some short videos embedded and simple animations.  Althought the project loads fast on my desktop, it is taking 5 minutes to load over the web. My users are not gonna want to wait this long. Any suggestions as to what I can do to speed up the loading time?
    Thank you,
    Heloisa Kinder

    Try reducing the preloading % from 100% to something like 20%. Preferences, Project, Start and End.
    If that is not sufficient, you'll have to reduce the filesize.

  • TS3623 why is it suddenly so slow?  going to take 1 hour 36 minutes to load Looper?  It's never been like that the last many years.  What happened?

    What happened to Apple TV?
    It now wants to take 1 hour 36 minutes to load before I can watch Looper?
    It's never been like that before until the latest update a few days ago.
    What went wrong?
    Did anyone from inside Apple say anything?
    Help.  I want to get back to my movies and I don't have 2 hours to wait.

    I finally unplugged the ATV and plugged it back in and it fixed itself.  Thank you.  Don't understand why the update reboot did not do this automatically.

  • Problems with illustrator CS3. loading drawings, swatches everything takes minutes

    Since a couple of days the problems started at my office. All pc's started to have problems with illustrator and photoshop. But most of all illustrator. On start-up it is quick as it used to be but when i want to load a drawing, swatch or symbol it takes minutes. I don't know if it has to do with an update or something else. I only know that it started a few days ago on all pc's but not on the mac's.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bas

    What exactly is a few days ago? The last Windows Update was on last Tuesday. Except for a .NET fix and various Office patches it did not seem to have anything critical, but it may be possible that it affects your computers. It's a far cry, though. More likely it's a virus scanner or something with your network settings, that causes erratic file opening behavior. Hard to tell without more info. your description is too generic and vague.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 - takes over 4 minutes to load - hangs on "Scanning for plug-ins..."

    Since mid-February 2014, having problems with both Photoshop Elements 10 and Photoshop CS4 extended (v 11.0.2) - both take around 4 minutes to load, when previously they loaded very quickly.
    In Photoshop CS4 there is no activity on-screen for 2 minutes, then it hangs on the start up screen for another two minutes on "Scanning for plug-ins." Similar issue with Elements 10.
    I am running on Windows 8.1, 64-bit. I also have Lightroom 5.4 installed.
    Any help gratefully received, as this is driving me mad!

    iMac will not start following OS X 10.9.4 update - takes 30 minutes to load with spinning wheel and progress bar and then when it appears to be finished it powers off?

    Thanks for the suggestion - this was the 1st thing I tried but it does not appear to work either. I'm still getting the 30 minute spinning wheel and slow moving progress bar on a grey background - even if I try to start the iMac in 'safe' mode!
