Hi Tom
I'm not sure about Windows 10 behaviour but I had a similar problem with
Windows 7. It seemed that my LC app was not releasing the processor long enough
to handle basic user I/O. The solution was to add the following to all my tight
loops:
wait 0 milliseconds with messages
The 'with messages' is the key element, this made the LC app hand back control
to Windows to handle other system activities. I add this line to all my loops
when running under Windows. Give this a try and let me know whether this helps.
