- Hi, first of all I want to thank Ian for this TOP product. I'm using UltraEdit since version 4.xx and am still using this very cool program, but since version 12 it is getting slower when it starts. Is there a new code or why is the starting more slowly? :?: :?:Replies: 57 Views: 92.4K

- We are noticing that UES (UEStudio '16 Windows 10 64-bit) may be locking files when they are opened. When we open a file on a network share (J:\myfile.txt) and then on the server try to overwrite the file (e.g. with COPY) we get: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another...Replies: 3 Views: 13.8K

- Every time I reboot, UltraEdit blocks the reboot and asks me to save Edit1, Edit2, etc. Then I have to click through a lot of dialogs, reorder notes, save them. It's all very inconvenient. Is there a way to have UltraEdit store these files somewhere, and reopen them when started after the reboot?Replies: 2 Views: 2.6K
