Long Zbrush Boot times

pmiller001

Hey y'all, quick question for those who've installed the Zbrush 4R73 update. 
My boot times are outlandish now. I timed it the last two times, and it came out to 4:56 seconds. Versus the previous, few seconds it took to boot (before the upgrade), this is needless to say, very annoying. Any body having the same issue?

Never had that issue with any version of ZB (since 1.5) been using R7 P3 for as long as it's out. Have you tried un/reinstall repatch? Which OS are you on?

you could try deleting the contents of zbrush's quicksave/autosave folder, it can get moody if the files in there are not to it's liking. next try moving the contents of the zstartup folder somewhere else temporarily? perhaps some script is slowing it down.

strangely enough meddling in there can break the license. as in: you might have to go through the licensing request dialog again. did it for me on corporate licenses anyway, repeatedly.

Hey y'all! thank you for the replies. I ended up just reinstalling it. I tried y'alls suggestions' but they didn't work . I"ll just chalk this one up as an L, cause I still didnt figure out the main issue, but alas. Its working now. Thanks though
