Hoster Running Slow
 

Running Hoster 5.40.01. Did a show yesterday and it was taking about 30 seconds to play each song in manual mode and sometimes the program would just hang up. I had most of my background programs closed including the anti-virus. I restarted the laptop several times and still had this issue. The only recent changes I made was I added 10 insta- buttons. It also took a long time if I stopped a song. When I put the program in Auto mode it was faster loading in between songs.
This morning I started laptop in normal mode, tried Hoster and everything seems to be working ok so I have no idea what was going on.
Just wondering if anyone else has had an issue like this.
Dell Inspiron
Windows 10 Home 64 bit 2.40GHz 16GB ram

I don\'t see what processor you have but I do see you have windows 10. With windows 10 home version we don\'t have much control over when it decides to download updates. There have been a few extensive updates lately and if you had a internet connection that was active, it may be that this is what slowed down Hoster. What I have started doing now, especially if I am running a show, I make sure my wifi is turned off or in airplane mode. This will temporarily stop windows from updating. I also temporarily turn off my virus program (Norton). Another thing I found is if you are using Acronis for backups it seems to have a mind of it\'s own sometimes regardless if you have it set to backup at a certain time and will slow your computer or certain programs down considerably. I\'m not saying this was your problem but it certainly is worth thinking about.
