We have an issue with the server library, it crashes and won't let us save or do anything with CorelDraw. If I force close it under TaskManager we regain control but as soon as we click save it freezes again. Any ideas. We keep losing work.
Just an update on this issue for others. We weren't able to reproduce the issue with the crash. But we were able to make progress on the hang/lock up/long load time when opening files.
Part of the reason for the long load time was because FontManager was monitoring C:\Windows
Whenever possible, users should avoid monitoring the OS folder or any other folder that is frequently modified or changed. When a folder is monitored in Font manager, every time a file is added, deleted or changed, FontService will try to scan the folder to figure out what changed and update the available fonts. Fontmanager monitors Windows\Fonts so there is no need to monitor the Windows folder for fonts that are installed on windows.
There was also an issue with (double clicking) / (drag and drop) to open files that requires some more investigation. I'll report back here when I have an update on that.
Many thanks to Wayne for working with me on this issue.
