[image] smanjunath211: i am running second instance successfully from command window by using this command node-red -userDir c:\Users\oee2\.node-red2 second.json So use that command in your second NSSM service. Note. I don't recommend this setup. If user oee2 is removed or locked out you c…

Assuming you setup your folders like described in that thread (a few posts above the one you linked to) ( this post ) then you would set your NSSM commands to run each instance in the same way as if you were running it from a cmd window example... NSSM1: node-red -p 1880 -u c:/node-red-1880 NSSM2: n…

If you set the log level to trace in settings.js then it will show more information when loading the nodes. Probably something is holding up the initialisation of one of the nodes. Possibly a network timeout or something.

Thanks, Funny that i changed the "info" to "trace" in log settings and now it is loading instantly ! within 20 seconds from earlier 3 minutes so if it is an external factor, it may repeat again, but i can live with that.. Thanks for the Help.
