We are lately seeing InDesign lagging when we switch focus from any other window (example Google Chrome) to InDesign. This is happening on two computers which are running Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 (OS build 19045.2604) and InDesign 18.1 and 18.0.

 

This happens even without any open document. Simply trying to click on the File menu option can take anywhere betweeen 2 to 15 seconds! Not always the same.

 

Anyone experiencing the same issue?

Do you work over the network?

We do. But as I said in my post, even without any files open it does it. I also saved the file on my desktop to check it out.

Maybe something in the configuration - fonts, some shared folders, etc. - are still affecting your installation of the InDesign. 

 

Try to disable your network connections - disconnect from WiFi or disable network cards.
