I've been running into this problem a few times a day recently after the complete reinstall I did following the OneDrive incompatibility issue.
I seems to happen following use of the Strategy Builder. The Strategy Builder frequently when I'm using it following a command will freeze for an instant and I get the windows message:
Application not responsive
Click To terminate task
or Wait for application .
I usually click wat for application and it quickly completes whatever I was doing.
But in this case the Control Center is unresponsive to any option or tab selections. I can move the window from screen to screen so it's not entirely looping as the cpu is the normal 30% or so.
Sometimes I can click on the NT icon and see the shadow of a chart or other task that will not paint the screen with the chart and appears white with a spinning circle which seems to indicate that chart is not responding and X'ing that chart will sometimes fix the problem but that's not working now.
Is there anyway of avoiding a task manager end and NT restart as I have 30 or so charts open and it takes a few minutes which during market hours can be a problem and in a fast market takes longer?
In addition it takes and additional 15 minutes or so to reload all the strategies previously loaded in the charts, select the correct account in the strategy parameters, then make sure the same account is selected in chart trader. It's a 30 minute process each time.
Is there anyway of setting up a template for 20 different charts with different strategies and strategy and chart trader account selection setting being retained across NT restarts?
Thank you.
