*** SOLVED *** Problem with link in WB16

I am having problems with the link functionality in version 16.

Whenever I click on "link" to add a link to an object it takes about 30 minutes for WB to respond.
In the meantime WB is frozen.
Also the cpu usage by WB during this time is 25% (1 core?) for the whole duration.

I have uninstalled and cleaned up all WB related files and done a clean reinstall yet the problem persists.
If I start from a blank project and insert 1 button and try to add a link to the button the app freezes.

I have no issues on the same computer if I run version 15.

I am running Windows 10 Pro.

Can you please advise?

Thanks,

Jessica

It sounds like the URL history is either corrupt or very large.

To clean it:
1. open 'regedit'
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Pablo Software Solutions\WYSIWYG Web Builder 16\
3. Remove the 'URL_History' item

That fixed the problem.
Links are working fine now.

Thanks for the quick response.
