We've been using BC3 with PVCS 7.5.1.5 for a long time on Windows 2000, XP, 7 - and it works wonderfully.
A little while ago I got a new PC with Windows 10 and whenever I start BC3 from PVCS it is very slow to start - it can take a over one minute and you can see the individual icons and menus in the toolbars being drawn.
I can get or check out files from PVCS (takes a second or two) then use the right-click context menu to start BC3 and it starts quickly.
The "Load time" shown at the bottom of BC3 when using the context menu is 0.11 seconds, but when starting through PVCS it is shown as 2.7 seconds.
I tried a trial version of BC4 with the same results.
It it too much of a pain to get different revisions of files to compare them. I have even considered using the PVCS comparison tool (really bad when one is used to using BC3) because it is quick.
Any ideas?
