PSPX9 - Organizer taking forever to display thumbnails

[df]

Just recently the Organizer in PSPX9 has started taking an extraordinarily long time to load thumbnails of files compared to just a few days ago in the order of up to a half hour or longer. I haven't done anything different recently and this is a pretty standard routine I use to process files. All files are coming from DxO OpticsPro 10, which is a version behind so I haven't updated that recently. But it's doing the same thing with files from Photomatix.

My hard drive isn't full.
I have scratchdisk for PSP set for a ramdrive and it's not even trying to use it.
I've tried running PSP in Admin mode.
I've restarted the computer and have run in Admin mode.
I've set an exclusion in my A/V software for .tiff .tif .jpeg .jpg .pspimage files as well as PSP, DxO, Photomatix, and the actual folder the files reside in.

Any help is appreciated.

Did a search on this site and cam up with a couple of possible answers:
Both mentioned a corrupt thumbnail database and mentioned deleting the database and having it recreated by PSP.
A mention was made by Simone of Corel UK that the Organizer makes thumbs of all the images in Documents and that some folders can be excluded in General Program Preferences. She also mentions a figure that the Organizer can take 1.5 hours to catalog 10 000 images.

Today it won't even recognize there's files to be seen at all. So I've tried deleting the Thumbs folders (not recommended but I'm getting desperate), and uncataloged my Ram Drive and external HDD. Nothing. It's like a folder just doesn't have anything in it. Again I want to emphasize I've been using PSP for a long long time and suddenly it just can't seem to find anything. And I haven't done anything new. I don't have the time. I'm swamped with work.

I reinstalled PSPX9 and it's back to normal. I suspect whatever the problem is was directly correlated to Windows Update.

A day later and the same problem crops up again. Any new folders just don't show anything in it to even generate a thumbnail for.
