    Hey there!

    I hope this is the right place to post this problem.
    So, maybe someone knows this:

    When I switch between windows in Windows 10 pro, lets say I`m in the browser window and watch a tutorial on youtube and then I want back to the unity window to do whatever, the unity window needs up to 5-6 seconds to respond! Its like freezed...
    Its a 16-core threadripper wit 64gb Ram and a 1060gtx....the cpu utilization is at 1-2% max.
    I think that should be enough to "awake" the unity window with an empty scene!?
    Everything works perfect on that machine...
    except... unity!....

    What do you mean by "Unity window"? The Unity page in your browser?

    Hey,

    I mean the Window of the unity program/editor itself.

    Ok, I found the "problem".
    The project(s) are stored on network drives...When I store it local, it works -___-
    But evey other program doesnt have a problem with having their files on network drives (3d-Software/max with huge scenes up to 4gb , Adobe CC Apps and so on)
    unity is the only one "complaining" about that...
    I wonder how bigger studios handle that...I doubt, that they have every project stored local on an employees machine...
    then every time another employee works on the project, they have to copy it back and forth!?!
     
  6. You really shouldn't rely on network drives. Especially if you work with other people. Writing the same project from multiple computers is insanely error-prone. This is why "bigger studios" and "smaller amateurs" use version control system. Which means you will get a copy locally and when you have done editing whatever want to add to the current base you submit the changes into the repository. Research git, svn or perforce and choose one. If you work alone or just with one or two guys you can choose Unity Collab as well.
    You really don't have any reason to open up projects over the network.

    Thanks for the answer, we`ll try a version control system!
