when you make this public should I download / install again? ]]> https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/fileseek-62-very-slow-to-start-multiple-instances/?ID=8b09d792-07ea-46ad-b8b7-7b6d502b76ec#3 Tue, 01 Oct 2019 18:40:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/fileseek-62-very-slow-to-start-multiple-instances/?ID=8b09d792-07ea-46ad-b8b7-7b6d502b76ec#3 FileSeek Ok, could you try this test build? I couldn't reproduce this issue any more today, but we've made a change here, wondering if it makes any difference for you.

We'll see if there's anything we can do from our end to fix that up.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/fileseek-62-very-slow-to-start-multiple-instances/?ID=8b09d792-07ea-46ad-b8b7-7b6d502b76ec Sat, 28 Sep 2019 05:18:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/fileseek-62-very-slow-to-start-multiple-instances/?ID=8b09d792-07ea-46ad-b8b7-7b6d502b76ec FileSeek Hi Keith. uh oh. more dotnet updates and now FileSeek 6.2 is taking 12+ seconds to startup multiple instances on my speedy new ryzen processor !

Steps to reproduce
1 start fileseek
2 right-click a folder in File Explorer - Click Search with Fileseek
- 12+ seconds later new interface window appears
3 repeat step 2. 12+ seconds...etc
Completely uninstalled / reinstalled - same
Reverted back to fileseek 6.1.1 - less than 1 second as expected ]]>
