Quote Editing is achingly slow. Every single thing I do on a very small clip, from deleting a tiny clip to saving takes forever. RIP editor keeps popping up. Never had any of these problems with PD13.

Please attach the text file from a Winodws dxdiag.exe evaluation of your computer. The only personal information in iot is what you named your computer.

Have you done any maintenance on your computer recently - deleting temp and TMP files, defragged non solid state drives? Is your system drive getting full?

Do you have your antivirus and other programs on when you are doing editing. Do you have your antivisus scanning files that are already on your computer?

What is RIP editor?

Is your PD 14 up to date?

Anything I post unless stated with a reference is my personal opinion.

RIP editor = Rest in Peace editor.

If you still have PD13 installed then you could go through the preferences and write down all the settings. Compare that with those settings in PD14 and note those that are different. Make the changes to see if it helps.

Hi! I had these issues with PD14. I think that's because my PC has a small (4Gb) RAM memory for a video editor. The recommended RAM memory is 6Gb for PowerDirector and higher is better.

However, PD14 "adapted" after a while, so when I updated to PD 15, I opened PD, kept it open for 3 minutes and closed it; I did that 4 times in 20 minutes to make it "adapt". When I opened it the fifth time, it worked just fine, so I could start editing and using the Screen Recorder as well.

I hope it helps.
