This is some minor bug

When a new file is created at startup, ArchiCAD must be checking all existing files in that folder to make sure that the new file name is unique, which would take a little time, but I wouldn't think it would be dramatic.
All this aside, if that was not causing the slow start ups, I wonder what I deleted that fixed it?

I'm still on AC10 which has no such problem. I asked only because I've been contemplating an upgrade. So far the sheer number of bugs that you guys have found, has discouraged me from taking the plunge.

The new features and speed increase in 12 are worth the upgrade, all the versions have some bugs, but for me 12 has no bugs that make me wish to use any earlier version.

I had been having long waits on shut down, not start up. Since I just deleted the profiles sets listed above, AC shuts down instantly...
