Vista - 100% Processor load

100% Processor load

Quite often my foldershare does not connect to the server and it says
"logging in / waiting for server". Whenever the program is in this state it
takes 100% processor load. It is the svchost.exe and not foldershare.exe that
uses the processor according to the activity reporting in Windows.
When foldershare manages to get online, or I close the foldershare
application the processor load drops to 0% again.
It is really annoying and I keep closing the foldershare application several
times per day in order to get my computer to respond to other tasks.
Does anyone else have this problem? Any fix for it?

I have FolderShare running on four of my PCs, all different makes and models
(and one laptop) and have never seen that...so I suspect it's something to
do with your system. I have no idea what it could be though - have you tried
uninstalling FolderShare and re-installing? Have you tried running
FolderShare when other programs such as anti-virus scanners aren't running?

RE: 100% Processor load


I had a similar problem on my computer. Turned out it is some
incompatibility w/ windows firewall on the particular system (Firewall works
fine on 6 others). Disabling Firewall fixed the problem. Whenever I
re-enable, same problem occurs. Haven't tried after recent upgrade though.
