22 second delay when Tools tab is accessed

Anybody having delay issues when accessing the Tools tab?

 

This happens when a file is opened, or when selecting an operation when the Tools tab is active or becomes active.

 

If I right click on an operation in the Operation List and select 'Tools' then there is a 22 second delay when opening the operation, if I right click in the Operation List and select 'Feeds and Speeds' it opens without delay, then if I select the 'Tools' tab there is a delay.

 

Different tool cribs or changing the crib yields the same delay, happens on mill or turn parts.

 

any help is appreciated, thanks!

Jeff

Hi @jeff.brower 

 

Are you using an MS Access or SQL database? or are you using a local database?

I've heard this happening with a shared database.

Local database, installed the 2021 version of FC a month or so back, but this just started a few days ago...

 

Thanks!

Hi @jeff.brower 

 

I would try resetting your INI file.  I am wondering if this is causing the issue.

 

Here is a good article on how this is done....Resetting the FeatureCAM ini file

 

Let us know if this helps.

Thank you Christopher, but this did not solve the issue. I've also re-initialized the database and no luck there either.

 

Next step is to see if our IT dept can re-install the software.

 

Thanks again,

Jeff

Hi @jeff.brower 

 

What happens if you change the material type?  Try using one of the default FeatureCAM material.....like Aluminum.

 

I've seen something like this in the past, but I cannot remember what the trigger was.

No luck there either, the delay seems to be when the software needs to access the tools database...

Our AV software was the culprit in this case, thanks for you're help!

Hey @jeff.brower 

 

Good to know.

 

I think you should add a solution to yourself since you were able to find the issue.  This also helps others that may find themselves in the same situation.
