XYplorer stops responding so often

XYplorer version is 26.40.0200 (updated today).
I have been using XYplorer with my total satisfaction except for, sometimes it stops responding.
Normally it happens after I start up Windows. Windows starts, and open XYplorer, it opens up with the last-active tab being active (at this point the tab shows "permanent startup path" instead of the folder that was active), and, when I select another tab, that selcted tab is highlighted/focused, but the folder view does not change, still shows the previous tab, then the app goes white and at the top it says "(Not Responding)"
In the past, it happened every once in a while, maybe every 4-5 days interval. When that happened, closing the app and restarting it does not solve. Therefore I restart Windows. Sometimes, the first restart does not solve therefore I restart windows 2nd and 3rd time. Then it works.
Today it has got worse. No matter how many times I restart Windows, XYplorer never get working. It goes non-responding.
I was hoping updating the software helps so I did, without luck.
I have 33 tabs open, maybe that's a no-go, but I'm not sure. I would try reducing number of tabs but my config is to keep all tabs when re-open the app therefore I cannot try that.
I appreciate any help or guidance to come out of this problem. Thank you.

It's embarassing. While I was registering this login and was writing this, and I did check the app, now it's working.
Maybe it needed some 30 minutes time to fully wake up, I dont know.
However the fact I quite often have this problem remains the same and it could happen tomorrow too, therefore I still would like to have some advice.

Thank you for your advice.
I follow the advice and have set the adjustments.
Since this is every once in a while symptom, I will see how it goes in the coming few days.
Thank you again.
