Hi All,
When a second user logs in on an app on the network of a customer,
opening app-windows becomes very slow. 
Has anyone an idea what causes this slowness? 
Thanks & regards, Thomas J. Pool

i guess you are using "Share" in Network. Do you know how ist work ?

File based System like xBase use SMB and it is normal when switch to 
"Opportunistic locking" that System slow down.
SMB1 work with Driveletter and Lanmanager. since Vista we have SMB2 and 
UNC-Path.

since Windows 10 1803 SMB1 default will be disable when it was not used fr 
13 Day so so need disable "automatic remove SMB1" when using SMB1. i 
recommend to switch to UNC-Path and use SMB2/3

UNC Path work on Shared Folder in Network

DIR \\ServerName\ShareName\File.exe

I can run DIR and other commands from a cmd window, the question is how do I create an Icon in the desktop to call a xbase program, WITHOUT maping a 
network drive to a letter.....

Hi Edgar,

Is the volume name of your local drive "C" or is it something else... 
from the command prompt what do you get when you type "vol C:"
On my development machine I get "Windows" so for my UNC target (Destino) 
I use \\X1-JDL\windows\xbasedb\newfcxb.exe.  Obviously I also have a 
windows folder but in the UNC target line it needs the volume label for 
my local C: drive which is "windows".  I checked another workstation and 
it does not have a volume label for C: but from an elevated command 
prompt I ran...
Label C: LocalC
and then VOL C: displayed LocalC as the volume label.

Hope this helps as it works for me.

Regards... Jonathan

I found the error, I was using CurDrive() on the path in the use command, and in this case CurDrive() is empty.....
once I removed it, works fine.

Thanks guys

I had this problem and after many tests the only solution was to
switch to ADS. I had even involved xBase support and this is expected
behaviour.

For what it's worth here is the performance diagram for running on a
shared drive. Alaska support confirmed this is expected behavior.
DBF's open is equivalent to users.
In case it helps.

In case it helps is the performance graph for connection to a shared
drive. According toAlaska support this is expected behavior.
Are people not experiencing this?
