Hi, I just got the 2.2 beta set up. I'm running win98 and every time i try to do something (eg: copy, delete, bind, first open, etc) the exw.exe file, the computer wants to slow down and do nothing for almost 30 seconds. it's pretty anoying. has anyone else had this problem? I'm thinking it's either because of the new icon, or the compression used. -Mark.

I've been running the new exw.exe mainly on Win98 and haven't had any problems like that. There are a couple of situations where exw might deliberately delay. One is where you haven't installed things correctly and you bind a program. The bound program might issue a message about "one moment please..." and delay for several seconds. In the second situation, the PD exw might delay if you alter a stamped include file. You'll get a delay plus an error message telling you to delete the "with xxxxx" statement. On my 350 MHz machine, I don't notice any difference in start-up time between the compressed exw and the uncompressed. Simply copying or deleting exw.exe can't cause a delay unless there is something really weird happening on your system. exw.exe is just a file like any other. (Is a virus scanner trying to inspect the file?). Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com
