I've noticed that the NC definitions that i have made are stored in 2 folders. On C/ProgramFiles/HoldemManager2 and also in AppData/Roaming/Holdemmanager/Notecaddy definitions. There also seems to be a ton of back up folders in the NC definitions folder. I was wondering if they need sorting and putting in just one place. Is there any maintenance work i can do to get my NC working a little quicker. Will vacuuming the HM2 databse also help? My database has 150,000 hands in and the performance has slowed down quite a lot and its probably mainly to do with me not maintaining the software correctly. Any info or link to a manual will be great for this matter. thanks - John
