Auto Save on Designer Pro X has become a nuisance

[hoja]

I see this too and I have a brand new, very powerful machine.

Me as well. And I have a 1 year old rig, custom built for high-end gaming. Of course, all that power can be of no use to Xara in case it is not used by the program.

Question for those of you who see black screens when saving/autosaving: What Antivirus software are you running?

Thanks,

Just the inbuilt Windows Defender. My specs: Win 10 Pro, I7 6850K, GTX 1070, fast SSDs, 32GB RAM.
My impression is rather that Xara can't make effective use of available hardware.

Designer Pro X 365 on Windows 10 64-bit Intel Core i5-4210U @ 1.70GHz, 8.0 GB RAM with AVG Zen Antivirus

So I guess if we were to turn this into a feature request, then it would be worded as:

"Please change auto save to work in the background instead of as if the user themselves selected the save option...i.e. ninja auto-backups."
