<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I found that hiding some
directories from the browser led to a dramatic speed up in both
loading time and browsing (opening subdirectories) time. In the
browser panel I did a right click on the C:\ directory and chose
"Hide from browser". Same on certain network drives that had
nothing to do with GIS. This small change greatly improved
performance.</font><br>

Maybe this will help?<br>

I have tried new profiles, disabling plug ins and removing

I have tried turning off my Kaspersky security software.<br>

<div>Hi David, <br>
</div>
<div>the answer is probably somewhere but someone has to spend
some time working on the issue to try find that answer.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The first step, where you can probably help is to find a
way to reproduce the problem on a developer's windows
machine.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you can find a way to reproduce it, please open a
ticket on the QGIS issues tracker attaching the step-by-step
instructions to reproduce the issue and all relevant test
data and project.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope this helps.<br>
