2011-01-16 11:19:01 George Atanasov description Inkscape used to work fine on my Windows 7 machine. From some time however the program slowed down when starting for the first time and saving files (primary save). There is not any problem working with it (and saving the the created file), but waiting for creating a new file and saving it causes real time loss and annoyance. I have found a thread on http://www.pubbs.net/201010/inkscape/5197-inkscape-user-inkscape-048-not-responding-windows.html explaining the problem. When my external USB drive where i have worked last with Inkscape and have some store files is not connected, the program works as expected - lightweight and fast. After connecting it - slows down enormously again. The problem occures only when the same external USB HDD is connected, not when a USB flash or other USB HDD drive is plugged in. There have to be located some broken files which are causing the program bug thought, but how to distinguish them among the others, or reset any Inkscape setting file, related to my working files and searching for a broken one?
