[Qgis-user] again QGIS won't open

[Stephen Sacks]

Andrea -
   Here's what I did:
1.   Windows key + R   gets me to a Run window and then CMD gets me to a 
command prompt.
  2.  chdir c:\osgeo4w  gets me to the OSGeo4W folder.
  3.  Separately, I tried each of the following four commands:
       c.  qgis
       b.  qgis --profile my-new-profile
       c.  qgis-ltr --profile my-new-profile
       d.  qgis --noplugins

In each case the response is:  'qgis'  is not recognized as an internal 
or external command, operable program or batch file.

I  found  qgis-ltr-bin.exe   in   C:\QGIS 3.34.14   and double-clicked 
on it:  nothing happened..
I  found  qgis-bin.exe   in   C:\OSGeo4W\bin   and double-clicked on 
it:  nothing happened..

Shall I re-install QGIS 3.40 ?  The only QGIS that appears in Windows 
"Settings Installed apps" is QGIS 3.34.  I was running QGIS 3.40  a few 
days ago but it now seems to have evaporated.  (I watched for about 15 
minutes while hundreds of MB downloaded.  Then I had to modify several 
Python scripts to suit QT6.)
I would welcome any advice .

H Stephen,
are you still running QGIS, as advertised, from the OSGeo4W Shell using 
the "qgis-ltr --profile my-new-profile" command?

Doesn't running "qgis-ltr --profile my-new-profile2" work?

If it works, then the issue may be related to some plugin or Python 
script that you installed in your QGIS user profiles.

Regards.

Andrea
