KS4 takes long time to boot

[Esben Oxholm]

Hi.

When i start up KS4, it uses a minut or so to refresh the matrial library.
I can't start working until it's done with that.

Is it supposed to take this long?
Is there any way to make the loading time shorter?

Compared with KS3 it only took a few seconds as I recall.

Best regards
Esben

Are you running the latest version 4.0.74? We did make a fix that could cause the library to refresh too often.

[Esben Oxholm]

Yes, it is 4.0.74.

Is it possible to only refresh manually when needed?

Are your materials located on a network drive?
How many materials do you have in your library?
Is KeyShot re rendering the material sphere?

Moved the folders from a network drive to a local drive.
Now it only takes a second. Thanks!

I had to customize each folder seperatly, though. When specifying location for all folders, it was set back to the old after restart.

Thanks for your help.
