[Qgis-user] QGIS 3.4.3 becoming unusable for me on Windows 10

[Michel Stuyts]

You can use the Python variable qgis.utils.plugin_times to find out how long each plugin takes to load at startup of QGIS. For end users I created a plugin that shows the information of that Python variable with a pie chart and a list of all plugins.  This plugin is called "Plugin Load Times" and it can be found in the QGIS Plugin Repository (https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/PluginLoadTimes/), so you can install it from within QGIS. It works in QGIS 2.x and 3.x.

With the information from this plugin you can see which of the installed plugins takes a long time to load at startup. If those are plugins you don't use every day, you can disable them and only enable them when you occasionally use them.  On my computer I have many plugins installed, but only a few are enabled.  It makes a big difference.

Thanks for the advice fellas.
Unfortunately being an end user, I never usually delve into the guts of QGIS.
Advice received is : "Can you try to start QGIS with the following options: 

qgis --noversioncheck --noplugins --hide-browser "

I have discovered the option to 'Check version no on startup' and unchecked it.
But how do I stop all the plug ins from Loading? I cannot find any 'disable all plugins' button.
Neither can I see how to hide the browser.
Any advice on where to find these options would be welcome.
Sorry if this is very basic stuff but I have never had to worry about these options in versions of 3.4.0 and earlier.
