Hi,
Or you can use different startup options - see http://docs.qgis.org/2.8/en/docs/user_manual/introduction/getting_started.html#command-line-options with the --configpath C:\temp\qgistest You can temporarily set your .qgis2 directory to some other path without loosing your settings. It also writes the Windows registry settings into a QGIS.ini file. --noplugins helps to disable all plugins As others said, in 95% of the cases it is because of a broken plugin or setting.
