Dan Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 So, I have been using, or attempting to use, MX5 for some time now, and have MX4 still as my main alternate. MX5 constantly hangs on startup and is super slow compared to MX4 last build. I have no idea why this is the case and have not been able to find a solution, including using different agents in settings. This is quite frustrating. I am using an older Dell XPS 1330 with 8 GB RAM and Windows 10 latest build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemax Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 I don't think it is an issue with either Win10 nor with your machine. Nor with M5 for that matter. How do you start M5, with last pages, new tab or home page? Did you do a clean install? Did you check that you are using IE proxy? Have you modified any folders of the installation? When I have issues the first thing I do is try a clean installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted October 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 I will reinstall and check on start up issues and get back to you. It is quite interesting that similar problems do not occur with old 4.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llara Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Same problems here (i've reinstalled it and doesn't help) with Maxthon 5 latest version. I've changed user agent to Firefox and Maxthon is now working only a little better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Just to follow up on this -- I reinstalled, but then took the suggestion of checking what startup items I have. Instead of starting with my Yahoo page, which is very content heavy, I switched to just start up with the favorites tile page, and this seems to have helped things a bit. However, I continue to observe the stark difference between MX5 and 4.9 when it comes to startup speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugSir006 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Hello Dan If it works too slow please use the procexp tool to check the CPU taken of MX5. By the way you can try to close the ADP and sidebar for more fluency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
