Long refresh when VBA editor in Access is active

Copper Contributor

I have tried to search the forum for an answer on this question, but failed. So here is my question:
As soon as I open the VBA editor in Access 2019 access starts to update (refresh) it self more and more often and it takes longer and longer time. After (maybe an hour) it is only possible to write 5-10 characters (!) before an refresh sequence starts and I have to wait for a long time (30 seconds) before I can write my next 5-10 characters. The only way to make the situation better again is to close Access and restart the computer. Then the refresh times starts with a longer time intervall again (but after an hour the same again). Only closing Access and opening it again does not improve the situation. This bad behavior started during this fall before that everything was okay. It seems like Access is storing a copy somewhere and desperat trying to update the copy.
Anyone who recognize this behaviour and know how to fix it?

@janholm Do you have Visual Studio?

Do you have some window saying about installing something ?

If not to the above...probably a background process is stalling you (Antivirus)

Hi, No visual studio or something installing. I will check the antivirus idea.
