This is an issue I encountered with Fusion Studio 17.1 Upon creating a loader node (or a saver node) Fusion freezes. Sometimes to the point of not reacting anymore, so that I need to end the task manually. Sometimes it comes back to life after a few minutes. When I turn off "Auto clip browse" in the preferences, at least I can create loader and saver nodes. But Fusion freezes again the moment I click on a "Browse" button.
I later realized the same thing happens every time I click on any Browse button (e.g. when selecting an OCIO config).
Has anyone encountered the same isuue? I'd love to know if there is any way of fixing this on my end.
Thanks so much for your reply, Sander! I have disconnected my network drive. There's still some lag now, but it seems to have improved the situation immensly. I can work with that.
