Windows explorer slow in one window but not another

Hello, 
I have an issue on a single PC where a network folder (not always the same folder) will start to run slow if multiple files are selected, either by mouse drag or by holding ctrl/shift. 
The very odd thing is I can launch a separate explorer folder and browse to the same folder and every thing works fine. I have the two windows open side by side and one acts normal, yet the other runs very slow. Restarting explorer.exe resolves the issue
but is not an optimal solution.
Any ideas would be much appreciated. 

Hi,
Sometimes, your antivirus software can slow you down if they are set to scan the network files, you can temporarily turn off these antivirus software or exclude certain folders for a test.
Disable network task scheduler (if you have) when you try to open a network folder, see this link

Another option is to increase the internet bandwidth, see this link

  • After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

    After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

    We've had several instances where we have had to run chkdsk on arrays with over 1m files. Average completion time is approximately 72 hours. The maximum downtime window they have available is the 64 hour weekend window. File sizes and number of files were
    much smaller then than they are now.
    The idea, in theory, was to use VHDs to compartmentalize the data into smaller volumes which could be more easily managed. It would also improve performance when transferring these compartments of data as they would use sequential read/write rather than
    fragmented/random. This idea was never fleshed out in entirety, they don't split data up into little containers, but simply into big ones per project. Hence the 11m files in one container that I am currently trying to diagnose.
    Some other important facts: The VHD in question is mounted in B:/project/ as this server also allows remote workers to log in, but they are restricted to see only data in E:. Disks A-D are hidden via group policy.
    Update: icacls is failing on a large number of files within this dataset. I counted the path characters to ensure it wasn't the 255 character limit I was encountering and verified that the paths being blocked are only about 150 characters long. Once it finishes,
    I'll have to try taking ownership and then re-running it. At this point I still have no idea how long to expect. I'm running out of time as the environment will be in use again at 9AM tomorrow morning.

  • Bubble Event firing in one company but not another

    Having spent the past 2 days trying to get the installer working (which it finally does thanks to people on this forum!), I've finally pushed my add-in out to people this morning.
    Unfortunately, the bubbleevent seems to be being ignored in all companies bar the test company.
    The code is below. The nominal codes do not begin with "720", so that section is not being fired in either company.
    So, my question is, why would a bubble event work in one company but not another?

    Hi Daniel,
    Then the only option I see is that the If statement is true in one database, and false on the others.
    If oApp.Company.DatabaseName = "FOLLIS_LIVE" Or oApp.Company.DatabaseName = "FOLLUK_TEST" Then
    If oCheck.Value = "" And Left(oCheck2.Value, 3) = "720" Then
    oApp.MessageBox("Please enter a Car Registration on row " & oRowCount)
    BubbleEvent = False
    Exit For
    End If
    End If
    If oCheck.Value = "" Then
    oApp.MessageBox("Please enter a Project on row " & oRowCount)
    BubbleEvent = False
    End If
    One of this is should be different on the companies.
    Nothing else comes to my mind.

  • Implicit read with assembly module instance working on one computer, but not another

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up an on-site computer to run a VI which uses assembly instances for data communication, but for some reason I'm unable to establish a connection to the PLC.
    I'm running the example vi "CreateAssemblyInstance.vi" to try and get the communication set up before I start using my actual program.
    When I run this code on my development machine, I'm able to establish a connection to the PLC and read data. I then go into RSLogix 5000 and change the IP address to the on-site machine and try to run the test VI there, but I'm unable to make a connection. LabVIEW-side, the program thinks that it's established a connection and is reading/writing data, but PLC-side I'm getting a "Connection Failed" message in RSLogix.
    I find it weird that LabVIEW thinks the connection was established just fine, which the RSLogix says it can't connect to the VI.
    Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen. We aren't sure why the same VI runs on one machine but not another. We used RSLogix to change the IP address of the target machine, so we don't think that's the issue. And both computers are on the same network, so we don't think it's a firewall issue either.
    LabVIEW-side, things should be identical. I'm running the same example VI that came with the Ethernet/IP module. PLC-side, we're changing the target IP of the module within RSLogix 5000 (and we're sending the updated information to the PLC) to match the machine we're trying to make a connection with. Are we missing any steps? This is the first time we've tried using an assembly module, so we're having a hard time troubleshooting.
    Any ideas on why this is happening?

    I'm pretty sure we're using a generic ethernet module:
    I can communicate explicitly with the problem computer, it's able to use 'Tag Read' and 'Tag Write' to communicate with the PLC.
    We started having another problem just recently too. The Tag Read and Write commands are almost always timing out. I keep getting the error message -251723752:
    Detailed error info: Error -251723752 occurred at EthernetIP Tag Read REAL.vi;Details: The request response was not received in the requested timeout period    Possible reason(s):  Ethernet/IP Industrial Protocol: (Hex 0xF0FF0018) The request response was not received in the requested timeout period
    I can't figure out what's causing this all of a sudden, could these issues be related?

  • Store credit shows up on one computer, but not another

    Happy Easter everyone,
    I was wondering why my store credit shows up on one authorized computer, but not another? Is there a way to fix this? Or will I just have to make my purchases on that computer?
    Thanks
    Jason

    An account's balance should show wherever you use the account (computer's iTunes, and in the App Store, iTunes store and iBookstore on iOS devices). Have you tried logging out and back into the account on the computer that it's not showing : Store > Sign Out menu option, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option (my balance has sometimes been slow to update on my computers/devices)

  • Problem with SMTP from one computer but not another

    I have an iMac connected directly to my network via Ethernet and a MacBook Pro which connects via wireless. I have a program installed on my iMac that sends me alerts via e-mail, and it works just fine. When I try and use Mail, however, on my MBP with the exact same settings and credentials, it fails. To make this even more perplexing, Mail works fine from my office on a different network.
    To work around this, I use Comcast's SMTP server on my laptop, but why would my regular e-mail provider's SMTP work on one machine and not another on the same network? The only difference is one is connected via Ethernet and the other by wireless.
    I use a Time Capsule as my router and wireless access point. Has anyone got an idea about what's causing this?

    Please report the relationship, if any, of the "regular e-mail provider's SMTP" and your ISP? If Comcast is your ISP, they regularly block use of Port 25, but if you have selected Use Default Port in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information for the Outgoing Server, then it may be making the wrong choice to work with Comcast. Regardless of the ISP, for this regular account click on the arrows beside the name of the SMTP, choose Edit Server List, then click on the Advanced Tab that will then be seen and choose Use Custom Port, then enter the proper port directly -- that port is probably Port 587, but that could depend on the advisory of the email provider for using their SMTP.

  • Public Folders Permissions Tab Missing on one pc but not another

    this has to be pc related but i just can't find any info anywhere. when i log into a pc and startup outlook and go to public folders, i cannot see the permissions tab on the folders at all. but if i go to another pc, same OS and office version, i CAN see
    and edit the permissions on public folders! has anyone else run across this problem?
    Exchange Server 2007
    Desktops Win7
    Outlook 2013

    Hi,
    Since the issue only happens to specific client, the issue should be related to client side. I suggest we can do the following method to narrow down the issue:
    1. Start Outlook in safe mode(Start > Run >type “Outlook /safe”> Enter) to check whether the issue persists.
    2. Perform a clean boot for Windows to have a try.
    If the issue doesn’t happen in safe mode, the issue may be caused by any third-party add-ins. We can disable third-party add-ins one by one to find out the root cause.
    If the issue persists in Outlook safe mode but not occurs after performing a clean boot, please disable the related third-party program in Windows to resolve the issue. For more information about clean boot, please refer to:

  • NaN on one server but not another

    Anyone heard of a situation where dynamic text (set using
    XML) will show up fine on one server, but display "NaN" on another
    (in this case, a Windows server, with the Flash Player code on an
    .asp page)?
    If it helps, the SWF is using AS2. And the XML data is
    actually being cast as a Number before being passed/set to a global
    variable.

    Does the CFGRID load on the page at all? If not it is either
    a firewall issue or a permissions issues on the folder which
    contains the .jar files for the CFGRID. Something like:
    /CFIDE/classes/cfapplets.jar
    I have had similar permissions issues where the web page did
    not have proper access to the .jar files.

  • Jabber 4.4 "Graphics card or driver not supported" error on one machine but not another.

    Hi, I looked at the KB document but the email link on it no longer works.
    I have two end-users using Jabber 4.4 on identical machines, same specs, same driver build and OS image. One gets the  "Graphics card or driver not supported" error, the other does not.
    We have two DellOptiPlex 7010's,
    Both had 2 instances of AMD Radeon HD 7470 - they are dual monitor machines.
    In both cases the driver version 8.922.0.0, Driver Date 12/6/2011. This is the latest Dell has on their website.
    On one machine when I run a fresh install for Jabber for TelePresence 4.4 it works fine. But on another the user first gets
    "supportabilitytest.exe has stopped working
    A oriblem cause the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
    Then when that's closed out we get:
    "Graphics card or driver not supported!
    New features in this version of Jabber Video are not supported by your computer's graphics driver.
    Update to the newest graphics driver available and run Jabber Video again."
    I can't believe it's just a matter of upgrading the drivers because in this case one machine with identical drivers works.
    I appreciate any insights, thanks !

    Hi ksouthall,
    It sounds like the openGL supported version did not install on the one that is failing.  There isn't much we can do regarding that error.  Best practice is to always upgrade to the latest manufacturer's available driver.  Client requirements are below.
    Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit), Vista, or XP (SP 2 or newer), with OpenGL 1.2 or newer.
    For 720p HD video calls, Intel Core2Duo @ 1.2GHz or better.
    For VGA video calls, Intel Atom @ 1.6GHz or better.
    Webcam, built-in or external. You need an HD webcam if you want other callers to see you in HD.
    Broadband Internet connection with a recommended bandwidth of 768kbps upstream and downstream. You need about 1.2Mbps upstream and downstream for 720p HD video calls.

  • Flash not working for one user, but not another on this CPU

    Hi,
    For user A on my computer most video will play in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. But video at nfl.com will not play. The ads will play but not the actual feature.
    I just found out that the videos on nfl.com will work for user B. I have rerun the Adobe Flash 10.1 installer in user A's account several times with no luck.
    Are there permissions or libraries I should trash to try to restore this capability?
    thanks,
    Steve

    HI,
    For user A on my computer
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Flash, reinstall new, then repair permissions.
    Uninstall Flash
    Install the most recent version of Flash here.
    Now repair permissions.
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
    You may also need to delete the Flash cache. Instructions here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11672709&#11672709
    If that doesn't help, install the v10.6.4 Combo Update It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.4.

  • Script works for one frame but not another

    I set up 2 keyframes, each one loads a different text file
    into a dynamic text box. The text box for the first keyframe is
    named "session" and the text box for the second keyframe is named
    "oneptq". The text file for the first text box is named Titles.txt
    and the text file for the second keyframe is 100Q.txt. The code I'm
    using is identical (except for the respective names of the text
    boxes and text files) but for some reason the text will load in the
    first text box but not the second.
    Here's my AS for the first keyframe:
    lvLoader = new LoadVars();
    lvLoader.onLoad = function(success)
    if(success)
    session.text = lvLoader.textbody;

  • Safari works for one user but not another on same computer

    MacBook with multiple user accounts. Safari (and Firefox) work fine for one user but are unable to open web pages when the other user is logged in. The error in Safar is "Safari can't open the page "http://xxxxxxxxx/" because it could not connect to the server "/xxxxxxx/" . DNS is working for this user. I am able to ping any number of sites from Terminal. Network Preference pane is configured to not require any proxy. This is a case of it was working but now it's not.
    Can anybody help with this? I know I can fix this by simply creating another user and transfering the affected user's data to the new account but I would rather not. TIA

    HI Bob,
    You can test your settings by clicking the big "Test My DNS" button at <https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy>. If you see "Poor" on any of the tests, don't use that domain name server! Remove it from Apple Menu => System Preferences =>Network =>DNS Servers or similar location in your router if you've got a 'home network'. If all you have is "poor" DNS servers in your list, call your ISP and insist that they give you the address of a name server which is protected against the recently exposed DNS cache-poisoning threat.
    Also, open System Preferences/Network. Click the DNS tab. Add these numbers in the DNS Servers box.
