Ever since the last update of bridge, I've also updated to the latest release(10.1.1.166) anytime Bridge loses focus and then I come back and click on ANYTHING, spacebar an image, the sort drop down, even the Help menu, Bridge goes into "not responding" mode and I wait 45 - 60 second before it comes back. Please fix this hot mess, it's unusable.

i have now tourned off auto updates. DO NOT UPDATE. un install and reinstall (first backup your settings folder)
this seems to work better than updating.

Illustrator is open almost 24/7 and just about the same for Bridge and Photoshop

you may wish to run adobe remover app
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html#when-to-use-creative-cloud-cleaner-tool
note this will remove all settings for all your apps but its the best way
to get a fresh install of adobe.
with my experience a fresh instal for any version updates is the best
option

I did speak with a bridge dev. and it seemed it was going to get fixed right away. NOW. I get a popup for adobe cloud. I explained to him to not advertize adobe cloud storage. I will never use it do to it not being FAD complient or fast. My NAS is 20tb with offsite backup only cost me $460 a year. Adobe is way over priced on this still.

Yea

Have been noticing it more and more.

Any type of interuption you create using Bridge causes it to stop responding

Its like Wait I am still thinking as to what I am going to do next.

I've been OK ever since I removed any favorites or links in Bridge to my NAS drive, which is offline most of the time.

Not sure if any of that is relevant. The only variable that has changed in this equation is Bridge. I've been running Photoshop/Bridge on this machine for years with no issue. On a cean re-boot, with nothing else running Bridge goes into "Not Responding" mode constantly.

12 GB memory, 320 GB left on hard drive. 50% memory still available during latest test.

1909.

This is also happening to me! I am getting 'Not Responding' or very long waits for even menu clicks. To me it feels like Bridge is looking for a drive that isn't available or is missing? It's really driving me mad! It takes ages to even start the program from the desktop too.
