    Default Run program in window8 compatibility mode improve performance

    google translate:

    Run program in window8 compatibility mode improve - performance - speed of Xara Web designer...

    I had been having problems with files with more than 40 htm for a while...

    Is there any way to improve performance?

    Investigating I see that xara runs in window8 compatibility mode... is it correct? Xara is not compatible with windows 10 Pro?

    Could it be affecting its performance?... Does it have a solution?


    EDIT

    Greatly improves the speed of Xara by giving it Priority "in real time" in task management (Details / right click on the program you want to give priority to)

    whilst win 8 is the default it will only run in the compatibility mode if you have ticked the run this program in compatibility mode for box

    it should not be necessary for any recent version of xara program; eg: version 11 runs fine in win 10 without this setting

    yes it will... though not for everything...

    if you have a powerful computer and you only give real-time priority to one program, you may not notice any issues

    overdoing priority assignments though can slow background processes down, or even pause them, which can cause issues as these processess have to catch up and some may time-out with undesirable consequences

    rhdpre07, without sight of your design, the most common thing I have found that slows down large sites is the Repeat on All Pages for a NavBar. It got so bad that I had to copy the NavBar, delete the original NavBar from all pages, make the required changes and then put the NavBar back in place. Even when changing a small amount of text, the Link > Link to box would flicker away for a time even if no links were in play.
