Today, on boot-up, I waited until all operations were complete - probably about 5 minutes...Xplorer2 Pro loaded up without a hitch...so I still feel that Xplorer2 is relying on some operation that explorer loads, to startup. Anyway, my fix is to wait the 5 minutes before launching Xplorer2, launch X...

agreed...

all though I tried both of your last suggestions, things didn't change...however, if I load Windows Explorer (quick loading) immediately before Xplorer2, I no longer have the long wait. It seems something is kicked in by Win Explorer, that is needed by Xplorer2. So this Thread can be marked as SOLVED.

I am on Win8.1...the inital load time of X2Pro takes up to 5 minutes.

Any subsequent loads are immediate.

Windows Explorer loads instantly.

(I have a couple of WD NAS drives attached to the network, that at any one time may or may not be available)

Any suggestions?
