After updating to the newest version, my Favorites button on the file explorer has become unresponsive. It takes 10-15 seconds to activate.

This is one of my most used features of AWM. Any suggestions?

Hello, J.Y.

What OS are you running (version, 32- or 64-bit)?

Are you talking about the standard Windows explorer?

Is the "Group Explorer windows within tabbed container" option enabled in AWM (Configuration module > Files and Folders > Tabbed Explorer > Group Explorer windows...)?

Do you mean the Favorite folders menu appears only 10-15 seconds after clicking the button?

Does the "Recent folders" title button work correctly?

Could you send us a screenshot of the Favorite folders list in the configuration module?

Sorry for taking so long to get back on this.

I'm using 64-bit. I stopped the OS from putting my second drive to sleep and now it seems to be ok.

I think the drive was having to spin up before the favorites list came up.

J.Y.,

Thank you for letting us know what causes this problem.

I'm glad that you've managed to solve the problem, but could you specify the name of Windows OS you're running (Windows 7, Windows 8 etc.) so that we could reproduce the problem and probably do something about it?

Best regards.

It is Windows 10.
