Cubase 10.5.12 Start-up Failure

Hi,

My old desktop PC crashed and I had to get a new PC. I did a new install for Cubase 10.5.12 on the new PC.

New PC specs:
Intel(R) Core™ i5-2400 CPU @3.10GHz
10Gb RAM memory
64-bit Operating system, x64-based processor
Active Windows 10 Pro

Cubase get stuck on starup at “initializing: VST 2. Plugin->File names that gets read”

I started it and it is now already 3 full days and it is still scanning/initializing.

How do I correct this?

I did a few uninstall and then reinstalled Cubase but it always get stuck?
It did not happen on my old desktop PC which was much lower specifications.

Regards
Sam

Hi,

Remove all 3rd party VST2 plug-ins and start Cubase. Then try to put the plug-ins back (in the best case in some groups9 to find out, which plug-in causes this.
