All you WSJT-X gurus out there, I have a problem:  Been using WSJT-X for
years with minimal issues. Yesterday something new started happening:

 

Running WSJT-X v2.6.1 and a K4D. Win 10 on an old computer. 

Yesterday I started getting  'delays' or 'hangs' in the movement of the
timing bar which also extends to transmit timing. During the hang, WSJT is
also non-responsive to clicking the mouse on any function, tab or command.
Here is the timing scenario:

RCV: Always hangs at 12 sec. After several seconds the progress bar jumps to
usually 1 or 2 in the XMIT mode where it keys the radio but then hangs
again. Even though the radio is keyed is does not transmit. It will then
jump to somewhere between 5 and 8 and start transmitting. The progress bar
then goes all the way to 14 or so and exits transmit mode. That starts the
cycle over again. It is fairly consistent in timing. Very hard to make QSOs
this way!

 

I tried:

-              Uninstalling and reinstalling the program

-              Turning off all other non-essential programs

-              Rebooting the computer

-              Upgraded to v2.7.1: same thing. Then uninstall and back to
v2.6.1

-              As mentioned before, using the mouse also does not work when
the program hangs.

Other programs are unaffected, i.e. the mouse works just fine, no
hesitation. I have checked disk space, which is no issue. When checking task
manager, I see the CPU usage go up and I get "Not responding" on WSJT every
time it hangs until after a few seconds: 



 

No changes have been made by me (that I'm aware of) that would affect WSJT
and again it is the only program affected. 

 

Any ideas? What other information would you like for me to provide?

 

TIA, 73,
