Basic stamp editor is slow to load or never as of late
Hello,
In the last week, my basic stamp software will not load?
It just sits there displaying the following box:
BASIC STAMP EDITOR
version 2.4.2
It often takes as long as 5 mintues to start or never does. It used to take less than 5 seconds.
My laptop is running this program and is less than a year old. I have a number of bs2 programs I wrote on this pc...a few pictures but that's it!
What could it be?
How would you guys suggest I resolve this issue so that I can do some programming!
thanks...

Also, will any of my bs2 files be lost if I do this?

I did not try to resolve the error as it was not there with v 2.4.2.
any ideas?
Solutions: NEVER use the IDE to open a file on a flash-drive, ALWAYS copy the files to the local hard-disk before opening them in the IDE.
Second solution -- clear out the "most recently used" list so no "foreign" file systems are on it.
