CS searches for plugins for a long time before starting. It can take up to 5 minutes before it starts. Any ideas about how to fix this?

Mine takes at least 7 minutes to load! And I have written about it several times with no answers.
I have a fast computer and lots of RAM. I had not changed any plugins from PS 7 (which booted in about 1 minute). I know there is something wrong with this version.

Mike,

This has been discussed at length in previous postings – suggest you do a forum search.

Basically some 3rd party plugins put a LOT of files in the plugins folder (AutoFX in particular) that do not need to be there. Move them out to a different location.

Even if you move them out, it still doesn’t work. I tried that, moved all my plugins into another folder outside of Photoshop. Then I directed Photoshop in the Plugins preferences to that folder. It still takes 7 minutes to boot up.
