Software has 10-15 sec lags ongoing

[kirk]

Since using the software (Win 11, MSFS 2020 originally, now MSFS 2024, high end PC and graphics card), I have always experienced a terrible lagging behavior with only this software. Any interaction such as moving its window, making a selection in the application, anywhere on any of the dialogs, it inevitably goes into a 10-15 second hesitation and then picks back up. I can work in the software for about 15 seconds before the lag recurs. The application’s stability is ok, it just picks back up. This occurs with and without MSFS 2024 running. The software operates with no issue in terms of the CLS E NG yoke. It’s just the severe lag with the user interface of the CLS2SIM software dialogs.

Have there been other clients who experienced this, and if so, was there a root cause identified that might help me finally address this? It has been manageable as I don’t need to use the user interface very often. But still would be a big step forward to correct the root cause.

Any insights?

Very odd behaviour, never saw it in my W10 system just to confirm it shouldn’t do what you see!.

Random thoughts:

Virus programme.

Folder Location.

Delete and reinstall.

PC time and date (don’t laugh, I recently experienced Simux refuse to work as the PC was set to Pacific time, not UK time).

I forget, but is it possible to right click and run CLS2sim as ADMINISTRATOR in case Windows permissions are getting in the way.

Does Simux work normally.

Completely uninstalled. Verified vJoy was also completely uninstalled. Reinstalled, ran ad administrator. The issue continues. No error messages occur. Just shows Program not responding for 10 – 15 secs then proceeds as normal. This is only when interacting with the application’s user interface. There is no apparent impact on the operation of the yoke.

Version 5.9. Windows 11 is fully up to date. This problem has occurred over a long time frame (nearly two years). Intel 13900K, RTX 4090, 64GB ram.

I have no issues like this with any other applications on my system, it has only been cls2sim.
