How long does it take to open your Xara DP?

Hello

Just out of interest... how long does it take you to open your Xara?

For me my XDP is the slowest application to open of all the applications that I have. Even just to re-open currently takes a full 17 seconds, whereas Photoshop only take 10-12!


I am thinking that I should either format my SSD and re-install Win10 from scratch, or possibly buy a whole new PC, but here is what I have:

MY HARDWARE:
I have a 7-year old PC with:
- Processor: Intel Core I5 750 2.66GHz )
- RAM: 8GB ==> (2GB 1066 DDR3 Memory) x4 modules
- Hard disk: 300GB Solid State Drive (SSD) "INTEL SSDSA2CW300G3 ATA Device" (year: 2012)
- Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 5770
- Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 244T
- Motherboard: Intel DP55WB (MA TX)

SOFTWARE:
I have Xara Designer Pro X10 (x64), running on Window 10 Pro x64 (upgraded from Win 8.1).

Cheers

less than 10 seconds

14 seconds to open entirely with two websites with variants and one page of edited photos and graphics. About 6 seconds just for the main window to open.
