Windows xp network file access slow


















On or off? Finally if you could conside using filemon from sysinternals. Also contained in sysinternals is a great troubleshooting guide to figure out what is slowing your system down. Process explorer is also a great tool. Don't worry about the programs containing mal-ware. Sysinternals was purchased by microsoft.

Sunday, August 30, AM. Some other things: Anti-virus policy Explorer will "freeze the computer" while it loads drives. Finding bottlenecks Use perfmon I'll post back with some reasonable counters out of the enourmous plethora of available to use. Start by testing SMB throughput. I frequently use a tool by some dude called Parkdale I actually communicated with the dev, he's good What's your network infrastructure look like?

Do you have "physical bottlenecks" on your switches, where an uplink is being over utilized without ethernet jumbo frames, you're looking at about Mbps over a gigabit switch from a client to the server. Use iperf to test throughput. If you have a core switch, what is the speed negotiated at?

If 80 clients all trying to pull at 1Gbps aka Mbps are all accessing the server cluster, then there will be a bottleneck somewhere. I have an old ZDNet tool called NetBench that will stress test a server, simulating a high number of client connections.

I haven't had much use for it, but you may depending on your infrastructure. Oh boy I don't know why you're stuck with those ancient clients, but if you turn SMB1 back off, does Win 7 and 10 access the file share fine?

If so, then figuring out a work around for your XP clients is the best way forward. You haven't mentioned which version of Excel is on the workstations, and what Excel file type you are opening. Opening and saving. XLS files on Win7 has been a booger since what, ? The legacy file format has all sorts of holes for security issues, so Office File Validation steps in and checks for issues.

I have had to sit people down and tell them it doesn't matter they have used the same file since , it makes us look out of date to send. DOC files to customers. I'll dig up mine shortly But hasn't been booted in years.

Windows 10 had enabled SMB v 1. What kind of Host are we dealing with? More questions and specifically the config of server comes into play. Windows 10 is physical. I appreciate you pointing out the error. I was a couple of weeks with this problem, disabled updates, reinstalled drivers, changed network settings. I appreciate your help in advance.

I think I am hitting the same wall here. Windows 10 Machine based in UK, the network share is based in NY data centre just few thousand miles away. When user opens an Excel or pdf file its taking ages to open the file on local machine. Please help. After an hour and a half of pulling out my hair found your post.

Worked great just by the first step. Cheers from Canada! Is it on the machine that does NOT have the share? Is it on the machine that has the share? Thanks for this! Nyer sorry about the confusion. I am updating the article to make it clear where the change is required. If you are on Computer A and the access to shared network files on Computer B is very slow, then you will make the change in the registry on Computer A where you are experiencing the problem.

Is there anything else that can help to resolve this? Your advise is greatly appreciated. I think I found a solution to my problem. Setting the values to 1 does not undo or re-enable the caches with their default values.

It re-enables the caches with 1 second timeouts. Computer Guy: You are correct. To re-enable the caches you need to delete the registry keys, which will set them back to the default values, or manually set them to their default values.

I have updated the article. Thanks for your feedback. I have been searching for a solution of the slow transfer speed problem on the internet, all I found were suggestions on buying new network hardware or set wifi from 2. Thank you so much, your first tip solved the week-long problem that I experienced since the last win10 update. Cheers from China. Yes, do all those things that you have read about here and elsewhere.

They will have some effect, but not much and it may be a temporary effect in speed increase. But they ARE worth doing. Read up on that…some reboots will be required before it is all gone. I use Norton , so it is the only Antivirus program in operation once I boot up.

By deleting the other two, the computer only checks the files going in and out using one program, not three, and they fight it out which slows the file transfers even more. In fact, they stop if you more than two transfers at the same time. This does work and is permanent. Roget Luo. Anything over kbs is taking roughly seconds to open, anything above 1mb is causing Excel to crash.

Also ran a repair on Excel, but didn't fix the problem. Not sure if recent Windows updates would be the cause. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
