Got same issue, mouse cursor moves +- 80% slower as well as all performance, problem solved once poe trade macro is getting closed down. What's more important @ ALT CTR DEL screen speed of cursor getting back to normal. Like this since yesterday.

I have the exact same problem. Never had any issues until last update.
I'm running the macro on Win 7.

Yeah same here it slows my mouse and really fucks with my PC.

Does anyone know if this has to do with the antivirus? I'm running Avast.

I have the same problem. Also running Avast. Avast's behavior shield detected the merge script as a threat initially when I was updating to a new TradeMacro version, and that's the first time the problem started. However, even after excluding it in Avast, the issue repeats shortly after starting the macro.

As soon as I enable macro, I get this http://ipic.su/img/img7/fs/2.1552845704.png After disabling macro GPU load falls back to 1-5%.

I had the same problem. The macro ran smoothly up until the most recent patch.

My Problem: Start macro, PC and mouse slows down, AHK shows as 'suspended' in task manager.
My Solution: AVG placed AHK into quarantine, remove it from quarantine and create an exception for it.

Macro has run smoothly since.

can confirm after uninstalling avast the macro runs smoothly. using another anti virus instead this isnt the first time avast has been giving me unnecessary problems

[Fjolset]

I'm having the same problem. Any way to fix this without uninstalling avast?

[jayer7]

not any way i know for now but I'd recommend installing malwarebytes instead of avast. malwarebytes doesn't have this problem and it's a better alternative to avast for me

I'm having the same problem. Any way to fix this without uninstalling avast?

Protection>Virus Chest> choose the poe trade file (on the right side) "more" > restore and add as exception.

Nothing I can do from my side.
I have added this to the FAQ page in the wiki.
