George @StresStimulus Administrator Posts: 555 10/18/2023	George @StresStimulus Administrator Posts: 555 Unfortunately, all .NET applications locks DLLs after starting; therefore, to use a new version of DLL after changes, the application must restart. So it is not a StresStimulus limitation but rather a .NET limitation. However, as I mentioned on the meeting, there is a workaround instead of external components with DLL to use scriptable components that do not require Visual Studio, DLL, or StresStimulus restart The only downside of scriptable components is that they do not have a debugger. However, if after an external component is developed, you still need to make frequent small changes in your code, and the debugger is no longer necessary, you can move your code from the external components to the scriptable component and not restart SS.
