This happens everytime. Now 4-5 times per day!! System essentially unusable

Hey @Robert_Schumann

Strange, I suppose the flippant suggestion would be to do it slowly.
Seriously, try this…

Before you do anything make a Backup: (Menu >Backup)

You can run a repair of the DataBase as it can help.
Eollow these instructions:

Close eM Client and open a Windows Run window.
You do that by using the Win + R keys on your keyboard.
Paste in this command including the leading "

“C:\Program Files (x86)\eM Client\MailClient.exe” /dbrepair

When that is done, restart eM Client

This is usually the first step, however, other disk problems can cause this.
If the repair doesn’t fully repair it, you should check your drive for errors

How to Check Disk for Errors using Command Prompt:

1./ Press Windows Key and tope CMD in Search
2./ In Right Panel Click “Run as Administrator”
3./ In new window type chkdsk C: /f/x/r & Click Enter
(there is a space between chkdsk & C: or other drive)
4./ If drive is in use tyoe Y & Click Enter
5./ System will restart PC & disk will be checked on boot
(if possible any errors will be repaired)

Same here. My EMC was updated twice in the past 48 hours, and now it just freezes.
