I had the computer in for service and they told me that they could not repeat the problem that I had with SC. I immediately get the problem as soon as I open SC. The software freezes and the charts are greyed out. I cannot use the platform at all. What am I to do now? SC is a required software for me. Help please.
I have been running SC from my MS One Drive. Could this be the sources of the problem?

Refer to:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often: 30.16 - What to do if Sierra Chart is in a frozen state for an extended time due to extended high CPU usage caused by an automatically or manually opened Chartbook

Yes absolutely, stop doing this immediately:

Sierra Chart can only be used on a local, solid-state drive.
