Upgraded from PS 7.0.1 to Creative Suite Standard. Re-installed Dreamsuite plug-ins and Knockout 2 and xenofex. PS CS sticks for almost 2 minutes at scanning for plug-ins. Any reason for this or do I need to remove some plug-ins?

To find ou which plugin is causing the slow down I would uninstall all of them and then put them back one at a time - launching Photoshop after every addition plugin has been loaded.

Also, as always, make sure Norton SystemWorks RecycleBinProtection isn't running....
And make sure you don't have an alias to a network drive or something in the plugins folder, or an excessive number of non-plugin files (artwork, presets, etc.).

Thanks - it is actually Auto fx plug ins (Dreamsuite and Photographic Edges)which delay loading by up to 2 minutes so using them as stand alones. By switching on autofx as additional plug in folder loading time goes from 15 seconds to over 2 minutes.

I believe they do install a few thousand files in the plugins folder.... (and we have asked them to fix that)

I have the exact same problem, and have 4 AutoFX plugs. Too bad... I want to use them as a plugin

You can still use them - but move those other (non plugin) files OUT of the plugins folder.

The only AutoFX plugin that will be causing the slow launch is PGE. It has a large content section that CS for some reason takes longer to scan through. The other programs will not cause the slow launch.
