Inconsistent code execution speed
What could possibly cause the code execution to slow down after a clean uninstall/reinstall?
I've been working on a new project using MakeCode in Minecraft Edu.
The code execution was running quite quickly and smoothly until I decided to reinstall Minecraft Education due to some ongoing crashes after I updated to 1.20.12.
As soon as I uninstalled/reinstalled to a clean Microsoft Store version, the code execution speed doubled or possibly tripled in time it used to take to execute on each frame, using the exact same code that had been running much faster only 10 minutes before.
My other systems that I run Minecraft Edu 1.20.12 are all still running at the faster speed.

Hey there!
Sorry to hear you are running into some issues.
What kind of device and OS version are you on?
Are you playing in single player or multiplayer?

Running in single player on Windows 10 - Microsoft Store version
- 11th Gen i5
- 3070 Geforce card
- 32GB RAMI'm also running Minecraft Edu on:
- an i5 Win 10 laptop w/ 8GB RAM
- a Macbook Pro M1 Max 32GB
- VMWare Tech Preview on same Macbook Pro w/ 8GB RAMwhich executes the code at around double/triple the speed of the Win 10 desktop that I'm experiencing the issue on. As I said, the issue only happened after uninstall/reinstall.

Hey there,
Thanks for the info! Those Win10 Desktop specs are beefy, you are right that does not seem right. You may be running the .appx version, I would try the .exe version here:
Minecraft Education desktop installer
Back up your worlds, uninstall Minecraft Education and reinstall from above and let us know how things go.

The version I have had installed on the 11th Gen i5 is the Windows Store version because RTX does not seem to work on the desktop exe version.
The code execution speed changed and became slower after uninstalling and reinstalling the Windows Store version. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling again but it's stayed at the slower rate. I will give the exe version a shot, but ultimately I need to keep the Windows Store version for the RTX compatibility.

Hi, Joshua. Pleased to meet you! I am not a tech expert by any means! I will just mention in passing that no matter the capabilities of the device I use, I find that trying to run Minecraft with another heavy image processing type of app (like a zoom/Teams meeting, or a PowerPoint presentation, or anything beefier, obviously) will always lag coding in my game. Even if I shut the app down, a restart is often necessary to "let go" of the previous app. I am not, as I say, expert with this aspect, but I have found this to be the case. Perhaps it may help you in the meantime. If not, I do hope better minds will find a solution quickly among the great folks here!
