Hey. I don't use that programme. I used to, back in my XP days. It might have made a small difference occasionally, but what with the registry becoming more and more complex and personal changes already being revoked occasionally by windows updates, plus almost all tech columnists/books advising against using such programmes to "clean" the registry, I just haven't gotten it back.
I think I fixed the winamp problem. Unfortunately I did not take proper steps to isolate the problem, so I still don't know exactly what caused it. Essentially I unchecked a box about "restoring queue" at startup, and also uninstalled a couple of plugins that I didn't think were needed. Now it loads as fast as it did before. Hmm. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Brian Olesen Sent: August 18, 2018 4:15 AM To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] Windows 10 and winamp, and possibly other media players as well Hi, CCleaner.

I'm running Windows 10 1803. I don't know precisely that these two issues are related, but a while ago I downloaded VLC 64-bit, version 3.0. I was pretty impressed right away with how fast it loaded. Well, a few weeks later, I wasn't so impressed as the program was taking something over 30 seconds to load every time and come up with the main screen. This happened whether I ran the programme from the search box, run box, or clicked on a video using file explorer. But it eventually did come up, so it wasn't a big deal. Now recently, VLC issued an update, which I installed. The load time went back to normal (iE, less than five seconds or so) and everything was fine. But now, Winamp is taking forever to load! Longer than VLC did when it had its little hitch, whatever it was. I estimate that sometimes, between calling the programme (again, using any of the principal methods), and getting audio and/or the main window, there's as much as a two minute delay. Once the window's up, everything does seem to work normally as it should, but I'm really curious as to what could be causing this. I have a feeling that reinstalling the programme will fix the issue, but I still want to know if anyone has any ideas or has noticed this happening sometimes with programmes in Windows 10. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
