[QGIS-ZA-user] Slowing down of the release cycle of QGIS

[Immo Blecher]

Hi James,

Go to your processing Toolbox and click the "Options" button.There will 
be a "Menus" item with a button next to it saying "Reset to defaults". 
That should do the trick. This is a bug which I have noticed if you 
change something in the "Providers".

Hope this helps.
