System Explorer performance - XP vs Win7
  • Vote Up0Vote Down occam January 10
    I am running SE (latest version) on both Win XP SP3 and Win7 SP1 machines. Is there any reason why under Win 7 SE takes far more resources (45% CPU) than under XP? It is also noticeably more sluggish - to start or to react to requests (clicks) than on XP. By the way, the Win7 machine has dual-core processor with 2MB ram (cf. 1MB of the XP machine), so on paper it is the more powerful of the two machines.

    There is no reason for it. Please enable logs and send it to our email... Please follow: http://systemexplorer.net/onlinehelp.php?t=troubleshooting

    OK, have sent an email to admin@systemexplorer.net with attachment of the .log

    The only additional info I should add is that on both machines (XP, Win7) I run the portable version of SE 3.7.0. (The issue has been around since before the latest update.)
