I have been noticing sluggish performance on this last build and it has gotten progressively worse. I do not see others reporting this, so maybe it has to do with my system, but other programs are not exhibiting the same "sluggishness." Basically, when I select a tract to work on it, the track hig…

Thanks! I already had an exclusion for Mp3Tag and I even added another with the extension, as advised in the thread but unfortunately the sluggish behavior remains. This began about a month ago, so I would doubt it would be due to Defender, but I still am willing to try anything to get things work…

I find at least 15 threads dealing with alleged slow reading of files. So if you use the search words "slow reading" you may find threads that inspire you.

I am at the current version 3.19, and actually find the performance is noticeably faster than the previous versions. Especially loading with the library turned on, I can be up and running with all 25k songs in just a few seconds. And no lag when selecting individual files.

[image] esumsea: but I still am willing to try anything to Just to be sure that Mp3tag is the (only) reason: If you go back to a previous version of Mp3tag, can you confirm that an older version works without a 3-4 second pause? I'm not sure about the reliability of this website, but they …

I too had noticed that the present version was fast. I really don’t know what changed. I will see if I can downgrade and if that makes any difference. I will also check other threads and see if I can find a different solution.

Downgraded to 3.18. No improvement. I removed all files from the external SSD and only had MP3Tag deal with files residing in a Nvme which is directly attached to the MOBO with an M.2 slot. I still get the long delays when choosing files and stuttering scroll. This is with only 7300 files. Somethin…

Do you use the MP3Tag-library and on which kind of drive do you use it, SSD or harddrive? If you use the library did you try to rebuild it?

I do use the library and it uses the external SSD. I have not tried to rebuild it, but may do so. I did install Malwarebytes and when I closed the virus security of Windows, I got a message saying I had to restart the computer, so I am not sure if the exception for mp3Tag, with the .exe extension …

Well, it seems as it was NOT defender because the problem persists with Malwarebytes. I cleaned up the library as well. I am now back with Defender. I completely turned off defender (and checked it was still off) and the sluggish performance remains. A bunch of spinning balls when I save or click…

Windows Defender - Speed of loading files in MP3Tag General Discussion

In the past I already noticed that the antivirus-software of windows-defender slows down the loading speed of files in MP3Tag dramatically: At this time my third-party antivirus-software (Avast) had been gotten accidently deactivated and windows-defender activated. This time I wanted to give windows-defender a second chance, deinstalled Avast and activated the defender. The same happened as before: Mp3Tag became very slow in loading files in spite of the activated library-function. I tes…
