Slow / Unresponsive V7 Windows 10 with file operations

Haven’t been using Rhino for nearly a year and getting back into it.

Having an issue where some file operations are really slow. Save As with a blank untitled document is just left Rhino unresponsive and I gave up after a few minutes. This one hasn’t been repeatable 100% of the time.

When browsing for blocks files to insert, can take upwards of minutes for the dialog to open and let me start browsing for files.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any ideas how to troubleshoot?

I’m current on all software updates.

Hi Ryan,

Please run SystemInfo in the Rhino command line and post the result.

Are you working off a network or on you local drive?

Lets remove the 3rd party variable by going to File>Properties>Plug-ins , filter by Plug-ins that do ship with Rhino and disable.

Thank you for this.

Is there any chance it could have something to do with Windows displaying thumbnails for 3dm files? I’m actually getting sticky behavior just browsing project folders in file explorer.

Seems like I have some other problem going on, nothing to do with Rhino. Thanks again.
