3. Other Settings

The following list contains suggestions for ensuring optimum performance when working with your Filmora editing application on a Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 system:

· Disable CPU throttling.

· In Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options, select High Performance.

· Do not enable the Windows Display setting “Show window contents while dragging.” This setting hinders redraw performance on your Filmora editing system.

· In Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Personalization > Window Color and Appearance > Effects, deselect Show window contents while dragging.

· Enable setting to adjust for best performance.

· In Control Panel > System and Maintenance > System > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings, select Adjust for best performance.

· Disable Desktop compositing.

· Follow this guide here regarding correct Desktop Composition Settings

· Disable Windows Defender.

· In Control Panel > Security > Windows Defender > Tools > Options > Administrator Options, deselect Use Windows Defender > Save.

· Disable Sidebar.

· Right-click the Sidebar or Sidebar icon on your desktop > Properties > Deselect Start Sidebar when Windows starts > Right click icon and select Exit.

· Disable Hibernation in the Power options.

· In Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Power Options > Change when the computer sleeps > Put the computer to sleep, select Never.

· Set automatic updates to Notify you but don’t automatically download.

· In Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Windows Updates > Change settings, select “Notify me but don’t automatically download them or install them.”

· Turn off the firewall for Filmora Interplay.

· In Control Panel > Security > Windows Firewall, select Turn Windows Firewall on or off.

· Do not leave the Console window open when you edit. The performance of your Filmora editing system slows considerably when the Console window is open.

· Do not leave a Windows Explorer window open. Windows Explorer attempts to update file information.

· Do not leave an e-mail application open if it is set to do periodic checks for mail.

· Do not run any application that periodically “wakes up” and performs an action.

· Disable screen savers.

· Do not keep media on the same partition where you install your Filmora editing application. Filmora recommends external media drives.

· Always use small fonts with the display driver to avoid missing characters in the dialog boxes in your Filmora editing application.

· After you move a drive from one system to another, restart your system. Windows does not recognize the drive until you restart.

· Ensure you do not accidentally delete locked items from your desktop.

· Right-click the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop > Properties > General tab > Display delete confirmation dialog.

· When you advance by single frames through the Timeline, deselect Render On-the Fly to enable faster response time.

· In your Filmora editing application, deselect Clip > Render On-the-Fly

· Do not name files with special characters (/ \ : ? ” < > | *). Windows does not recognize special characters in file names. Bin names are limited to 27 characters (not including the four characters reserved for the file name extension).

· Do not schedule automatic backups at times when your Filmora editing system might be in use.
