Why new Zotero version 7.0.9 (64-bit) is super slow?

I have updated Zotero windows desktop app to 7.0.9 (64-bit) couple of weeks ago.

This app has become significantly anoyingly slow. It take ages to load the folders and files.

I am syncing my files with Unlimited online account. However this had no issue with previous versions.

What might be causing this?

Not a general issue -- have you tried restarting in Troubleshooting mode (Help menu)? This could be plugin related.

AW.Yapa · 2024-11-25T15:31:54+00:00

Yes I did.
Don't have any plug in installed.

Can you provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup through an operation that's slow, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option?

@AW.Yapa You should test with all third-party plugins disabled. Better BibTex is still enabled.

And what is that meant to show? That shows Zotero startup and an initial auto-sync — including checking all local files for changes and looking for about 150 files that are missing online — but I'm not seeing anything particularly slow there.

Note, though, that if your D: drive is something other than an SSD, that would certainly be slower than keeping your data directory on an SSD.
