Hi. Sometimes I do a search on pio and it takes days and feels like it will never get solved. Has anyone experienced this before? For most searches, it gets completed within a couple of hours.
This is what I get after leaving it on for the whole night:
Some trees are just very difficult for the solver with the current algorithm.
I see that you are using rake which makes it especially problematic (because while the solutions exist there are multiple ones with varying EVs so it's not really mathematically possible to purely "solve it").
Things that makes trees more difficult for the solver:
-rake (especially big one)
-overbets (especially big ones)
-paired/same rank boards

Hi. I just got a diff pc and deactivated my old pro licence successfully and the activated it on the new machine successfully.
However when I try to connect to the solver via the viewer it tells me access denied.
Any ideas why?
It's usually cased by Windows settings.
Try another folder, try running the installer as a normal user (not admin). It's the best to choose something like C:\PioSOLVER so you avoid protected spaces like program files, desktop etc.
