I keep getting "Code hung" and "out of memory error" on my wix page

When you did not change your setup and the error just came out of nowhere → Wix sided bug. Wait a for w while → if still not gone → Wix-Customer-Care!

Hey fellow Wixers,

I too am now getting the same error. EVERYTIME I try to edit any one of my wix sites it struggles to load and give the the memory error

I have cleared my cache, restarted my computer, tried different browsers, tried incognito mode, etc and nothing works. Most def not pointing any fingers but my trouble shooting efforts make me think something is wrong on Wix side (something out of my control). My site was working fine just a few days ago and I haven’t changed anything since yesterday and now i’m experiencing this issue.

Please Wix-team, its obvious the issue isn’t unique to one person but rather there are a few of us experiencing the same thing. Please get to the bottom of this.

Looking Forward

Found a temp fix, download and use the ‘brave’ browser. You can edit your site.

Still one big issue tho, when users go to your published site on a popular browser (not brave), it appears to lock up and not render correctly

I’m getting the same “Code hung” error but on Wix’s Marketing Emails page (not my own site, but Wix’s own tool):

I’m using Chrome, cleared cache, only have one browser window open, and it’s happened 3 times in a row!


NOTE: I discovered that the issue in my case was that every time I chose to change the font type in the Wix Marketing Email tool to “Medium Heading”, the code would hang, and I would get the same “RESULT_CODE_HUNG” error. I worked around it by keeping the default font type and simply changing the font design (font size, color, etc.).

There’s definitely still a bug on the Wix side, but it takes too long to work with Wix Customer Service to try to get that taken care of.

Is there somewhere we can report bugs on here?

I want to go on record that I am having the same issue on this error message when I try to edit on PC. I have no issue editing on a MacBook laptop. Very frustrating since my photo editing is on PC and I want to upload to Wix from that point. Hope there is a solution soon.

I have been unable to edit my website for a few days and followed all recommendations and tried different browsers. WIX charges a lot of money for their website use but not helps when needed! Shameful!

same , unable to finish website that i have worked on for a mth, its extreamly fustrating i have contacted wix and they gave me the same story, as if i didnt try all their sub par suggestions. Can wix please contact me to discuss… Again … I have called and no help . Instead im blamed for my computer Hardwear. Its a website editor not Houdini. This is an issue with the studio editor and the browser memorey . Not the hardwear. Its only happening on wixstudio pages. Do not start a website in wix studio and hope you will be able to finish it, you won’t !! There needs to be a bug fix or a solution customer service can guide you though, as it’s currently not usuable or a developed product for market if this is the forums most viewed thread… Please wix you need a solution… quick !

Well, this isn’t reassuring–to say the least! Although we have been using Wix for a while without having to make any changes, I am now VERY concerned about wasting any time on planning a website change with all this going on.

I am experiencing precisely the same issues as those others here. If Wix Support is saying that it is machine-specific and that we should try and resolve it on the users’ end… all whilst we are ALL experiencing the same issue on different machines all over the globe… what idiots do these people think we are as a community, and do they honestly think we are going to just disappear after having paid so much money?

No, I would like proper answers from Wix please. Answers that will end up resolving this issue–it is widely felt. Wix… Fix… it please!

I’ve also been having this issue for several months. If I watch the Task Manager while using the Wix Editor I can see the browser’s memory climbing until somewhere around 3000MB the CPU use spikes too and screen starts freezing before it snaps. I got the feeling it was a memory leak somehow tied to the caching of steps for the Undo function. Same outcome on Edge as Chrome, whether cache cleared or incognito, and even when working on pages with only a few images or lines of code.

The only solution I’ve found is to periodically close the browser and/or tab and open the Wix Editor in a new tab.

I’m having the same problem- out of memory error. I have 40GB of RAM and can load bigger programs. This seems to have appears in the last few months on my Windows 11 but I see it’s an old problem. Really sad there is not a clearly published fix and it is not noted in “Known Issues” on support / FAQs. It’s extremely had to find a quality app these days.

Just bought a new PC with 32GB RAM, Wix worked fine for a few days, but now even the homepage of the Wix won’t load, just like my page URL.
My CPU and RAM are going sky high, even with 20GB of RAM left, the page shows ‘‘out of memory’’.
Fix this sht WIX !!
we are paying a sh
tload of money, and all we get is a non working site.
time to go and build a site somewhere else, screw this!

I was having issues accessing my wix site and the editor - getting the no memory error

I tried everything but once I disabled my threat protection on my VPN app it all started working again - the screenshot below is what the app was blocking

I started having the “Out of memory” issue a few months ago. I was able to make a little progress by using a different browser (Firefox instead of Edge), so I assumed Edge was the problem. Fast-forward to today - now I can neither edit my site nor view it (panic sets in!).
I terminated my VPN temporarily (not just disabling it!) and now it all works fine. I hope this helps someone!

This is starting to happen to me too even though I am not using a lot of elements, and am already using dynamic pages quite a bit…

I disabled my Nord VPN. I am no longer receiving the error message.

So it seems like VPNs are part of the issue. I hope Wix does something to fix this though, since most users probably use VPNs all the time.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions!!!

I commented earlier. Just want to add that I use a VPN (NordVPN), but without any extra features (threat & malware protection, etc.) enabled. I wonder how many other commenters also use VPNs?

Turning off or removing the VPN is not an option for most, but at least Wix techies have an idea what to look for to address the issue.

Hi! Do You By Any Chance Use Web Protaction ( NordVPN, Surfshark, TotalProtection) Make Sure to Turn It Off Before You Try To Use Wix Site Creator, Any Network Protection Is Seeing it as Problem Becouse Of Data Useage (Any Element On Wix Site Creator Can Trigger Network Protection Even If Its Just One).

I Hope I Help Little With Your Problem!
