--- Comment #23 from vaarti...@gmail.com --- Okay. I've got some good information for you. 1. I was able to finally totally disable CSC. I had to make some registry changes: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC *Start* DWORD *4* = Disable HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CscService *Start* DWORD *4* = Disable Unfortunately, that didn't solve the problem. It did stop all of the failed attempts to query the CSC folder. But the behavior in digiKam persisted. 2. I think this will help! I recorded a video of the import process of a single file into a small folder. I also had Process Monitor and DebugView running. When digiKam is idle, there are periodic calls to some networking related registry keys. Pretty constant actually, but not really the problem. Then, when I import an image, it appears in DebugView that it starts a task to scan the folder it was imported to, however, as you can see in Process Monitor... it starts a scan of the entire collection! It takes quite a while before it finally gets to the folder that has the import, and then it clears that task. The entire time it is scanning the collection, there are no updates in DebugView, so that's why it looks like it is hung... but digiKam is doing something. Here is the video file link: digiKam test video - YouTube <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UW1r21ZAf-g> I assume this is unexpected behavior? I hope this helps.
