CID under windows 10

Hi guys, i’ve recently purchased a new laptop and it has windows 10 on it. I installed CID and started browsing as usual but it keeps crashing at random times. Does anyone have the same problem?

Yes, some plugins or scripts crashes or are very, very slow. Under Windows 7 there were almost never problems with CID, but now with Windows 10 it is really bad. Other programs have problems with Windows 10 too. I had to install Windows 10 six times since it was installed for the first time. Maybe you notice some other minor problems with Windows 10, such as some preferences in from Windows 10 programs or apps (like screen settings or standard programs) that will not save, it starts with a few but it will stack up in time. Sometimes my mouse or keyboard suddenly stops working, only a reboot will solve this.
Don’t know if it is the compatibility or just a bad Windows 10.

Hi guys,
Try disabling ‘Use hardware acceleration when available’, found under the advanced options.
about:preferences#advanced

Kind regards.

Thanx, i changed the setting and hopes it will work.
Is this a problem in CID or Windows 10?

Trying this now, will post back if the issue persists.

Hi GePo,
If it solves the issue it is most likely a common compatibility issue between the hardware and software.

Kind regards.

Well i’m not sure if this is what did it, but the browser stopped crashing for now, hopefully it will stay like this. I will post back after a few days to confirm.

Thank you Yashiro. :slight_smile:
