Since a day or two ago, Helicon Remote has been taking upwards of 5 minutes or longer to open. I see it in the Task Manager (currently using 14.2% CPU resources and 43.4MB of RAM resources). I'm not quite sure what is going on. I have also noticed that I can lock in on the closest point and furthest point of my shots and set it to 1 step increments on shooting (once Remote finally opens) for a 85 slice stack. I end up with 85 slices, but the first 10-15 are out of focus and it doesn't go anywhere close to where I set the end point.
Camera Specs:
Nikon D5300
Nikkor Micro 40mm lens

O/S - Windows 10 Pro
CPU - i7 6700k 4.7GHz (water cooled)
RAM - 64GB DDR4

Excessively Long Load Time
Re: Excessively Long Load Time
Including attachment showing Helicon Remote active in Task Manager, but no GUI interface to interact with as an active program.

Re: Excessively Long Load Time
The problem is most likely not in the program.
Have you rebooted Windows since it started occurring?

Re: Excessively Long Load Time
I have rebooted several times. I generally end up having to uninstall, clean out the appdata, and reinstall to get it functioning.

Re: Excessively Long Load Time
Try settings wipe (Helicon Remote menu -> File -> Preferences -> Tools -> Wipe settings; restart the program).
Reinstalling does nothing on itself.
Does it happen even when no camera is connected to the PC?

Re: Excessively Long Load Time
It happens with or without the camera connected. I can't even get the program to load now. As of current, I am completely unable to get it to load to attempt the "Wipe Settings" solution you suggested. I have not been able to load the program for 3 days now no matter how many times I reboot.
