Unfortunately, the Processing plugin which I use quite a lot causes QGIS and my computer to crash nearly systematically. After each fresh install - I uninstalled/installed QGIS a few times - and the first crash, I get this message when I open QGIS again : « Plugin processing : The plugin will be disabled because it crashed QGIS during last startup. Please report an issue and re-enable the plugin when the problem has been solved.” When I try to activate the plugin by ticking the box in the ‘Manage and Install Plugins’ menu, my computer crashes again.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:105%'><span lang=EN-GB><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:105%'><span lang=EN-GB>I have tried to install other standalone versions of QGIS, ie, 3.12.0-2 and 3.8.3-1, and the version that comes with the osgeo4w installer, and they all cause the same problem.
