LaunchBox unusable since 13.24

[Baggio]

Hi guys,

Since 13.24, Launchbox has been unusable for me.  As soon as I open it up my CPU usage goes to 40-50% and causes my PC to stutter making it unusable while Launchbox is open. 

13.23 works fine.

I've tried it back on the default theme and still have the same issue.  Any idea what's causing this? 

If logs or anything are needed, let me know which ones and i'll post them.  Thanks

Just to add i have also tried removing all the plugins I have, and that has no effect either.

Edit:

Not sure if this has anything to do with it.  The loading arrow just revolves continuously while LB is open and i have auto imports turned off.

I'm getting somewhere.  I installed Launchbox on another drive and it worked fine so moved over my Data, Themes, LBthemes and Plugins folders.   Again, it worked fine until I used my old Settings.xml, that's when the issues came back again.

So something in my settings is causing this slow down it seems. 

When you update to a new version of Launchbox does it merge the new settings.xml with the old one if there are any changes or additions to it or does it just keep your old one?

Well, I figured it out after comparing debugs, comparing settings and then going through every setting one by one.

Typically, it was the second-to-last one, the "Enable Game Controllers" setting.  Turning that off stops all the stuttering.  What's been changed since 13.23 regarding the controllers I don't know but i would like to get that back working again if anyone knows how.
