Latest version freezes in Scanner Options
« on: January 15, 2016, 09:56 AM »
Hi,

I just installed the latest version of SC (4.16.1). When I open the Screenshot Captor Options and click on Scanner Options under Tools, the dialogue window freezes for about 2 - 3 minutes before I can continue using it.

I'm using Windows 10 and have a number of scanner devices installed.
Once the window is unfrozen and I select a scanner driver and click on Apply, it freezes again.

How strange.. it must be some problem reading info about the cannars.
You say you have a number of scanner devices installed.  If you disconnect them does it open quickly? If so, maybe you can figure out which device is causing the slow down?

... If you disconnect them does it ...
Maybe it should be approached the other way around: When connecting all scanners, does it open quickly? If so, disconnect 'm one by one, and see which one causes the slowdown :tellme:
