    Default Xara Web Designer Premium 17 - Really Really Slow

    Hello All,

    I'm new to this forum and need some help.

    I have built a website using Xara Web Designer Premium 16 & 17, however if I want to add a new hyperlink / update it - it takes forever.

    Every time I try this I am having to wait around 30 seconds.

    I have plenty on RAM (16GB) and usually there is around 10GB available. I have Intel i7 processor that isn't really busy.

    Is anybody else having the same issues?

    Thank you for helping!

    I would run both as Administrator to force the applications to register their assets correctly and recheck your speed again.

    Run as in: launch the application in admin mode or re-run the installation software?

    Thank you for your help

    if it's not a registration issue then sorry but I can't really help, you will need to wait for acorn or another website builder to get back to you

    Welcome Mitslad. That is definetly not right. What size is your website and how many pages?
    Egg

    Intel i7 - 4790K Quad Core + 16 GB Ram + NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1660 Graphics Card + MSI Optix Mag321 Curv monitor
    + Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB SSD + 232 GB SSD + 250 GB SSD portable drive + ISP = BT + Web Hosting = TSO Host

    Question Re: Xara Web Designer Premium 17 - Really Really Slow

    So I created a text document of 160 flowed pages and 160,000 words. It is only 400kB.

    A Search and Replace of 2,000 words took 30 seconds.

    The delay in adding new letters for the cursor to catch is is about one second per character.

    Autobackup kicked in and took 20 seconds.

    Big operations like creating and moving a repelling box took 10-30 seconds "Updating document".

    Is this the type of experience you are getting?

    Hi yes,

    Very similar behaviour.

    To rule out my desktop, i tried an a laptop and its the same.

    Updating hyperlinks takes the longest. Over 30 seconds each time.
