Were those options there before? When you first set up the programme it generally asks you if you want to set them. I don't remember the steps. Maybe you should re-install the programme. Do you have the latest (final?) winamp build? It's winamp 5.666 I believe. It's the most stable with Windows 10. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2017 1:01 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Winamp taking forever to open. Nope, it wouldn't open from the context menu either.

Can you try opening Winamp from the context menu and see if that goes any better? Once the programme is open you can use the playlist editor and so on as usual, although I find that in Windows 10 JAWS always seems to lose focus somehow. I generally find, unless I am making huge playlists, the best method now is to use the shell options from the context menu (play in winamp, and the other option that lets you add folders or files to your playlist). -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 10:29 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Winamp taking forever to open.

How are you opening winamp? Do you use the shell options? Do you search for the programme in the search box, or use the run command? I find winamp is generally slower on Windowws 10 than it was on Windows XP. It also takes Windows a lot longer to power up my external USB drive, but tha'ts not a winamp issue ... just that a lot of my music is on there, and Windows shuts off the drive pretty much as soon as it's not in use. This results sometimes in Winamp appearing to lag. . -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 3:34 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Winamp taking forever to open. I have not made any changes to my computer, but I am suddenly finding that Winamp is taking quite a long time to open, which is not normally the case. I have seen this behavior in the past, but went away once I restarted my computer. However today, after restarting, the first time I open up Winamp it readily opens, but any time after that it is very slow to comply. Has anyone else seen this behavior and have a fix? I am running Winamp Classic and open to the main window. I am running Windows 10 Creator.
