Hey there, fellow SQL enthusiasts! I’m sure some of you have encountered this frustrating issue: editing rows in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) causes the app to freeze. Yeah, it’s super annoying. If you’re like me, you’ve tried to edit data directly in the table using the ‘Edit Top 200 Rows’ feature, only to find that SSMS becomes unresponsive.
I’ve dug deeper and found that this issue is more common than I thought. It seems to happen when you have multiple tabs open and try to edit data in multiple windows. Sometimes, it even freezes after you’ve already opened an ‘Edit Top 200’ window and try to edit a value.
The worst part? Leaving it alone might unfreeze it after a few hours, but who has that kind of time to waste?
