jwilliamsen got a reaction from Delphi in Extremely disappointed that this installs as an "App" and not regular software program
Agreed. So far, I'm unable to install the upgrades that I just purchased. I keep getting errors which I'm guessing are due to my shutting off a lot of the spyware features of Windoze 10.
I'm hoping they are planning on releasing a good ol' EXE - if not, I'm going to want a refund.

OK - so after more (and more) troubleshooting, this seems to be related to Acronis True Image 2021 and their new "malware" protection. Once I shut off ATI's protection, there was a significant speedup in AD - like 4X faster and the menu lag and new document delay is gone (at least the first document created is fast, any subsequent ones are kind of slow) - although AD is still kind of "hitchy" and has mini-hangs here and there.
I wonder what they're doing that interferes with AD?
I'm going to re-install and see if that fixes it ....
OK - I re-ran the installer and did a "repair" and that seems to have helped a bit more. I also switched from my GPU acceleration to the WARP acceleration and that helped as well. I'm still seeing mini-hangs with text manipulation (moving text boxes, changing fonts, etc) but launch times are down to ~6 seconds and new document are created almost instantly. It's still not the snappy, fluid AD I remember, but it's way more usable.
