Re: [Qgis-user] 2.6 very slow to render
Depending on the operating system, the .qgis2 (see the leading period) is in the users home folder. On linux this would be /home/username/.qgis2 and in Windows it's usually at C:\Users\.qgis2\ I think it gets created regardless of plugins because it stores a lot of other things like user settings and configurations made.

[Qgis-user] 2.6 very slow to render and uninstalling 2.6 - Solution
I now have 2.6 running “normally” on W7-64 Previously everything done in in Layer control took an eternity to respond, especially if it involved raster images.I’d been running 1.8 which worked perfect. Solution was to uninstall and “clean” all QGIS files as follows; 1. Uninstall 1.8 and 2.6 using windows uninstall 2. Clean the Registry of all folders with “qgis” in the title. I used Regedit which comes standard with windows. 3. Delete the .qgis2 and .qgis folders from “users”. In my case these are located at C:\Users\BADAMS 4. Restart machine 5. Load 2.6 6. Problem solved!!! Interestingly when reloading 2.6 it tells me 2.6 is already loaded, so something remained during this process. Didn’t seem to matter. Thanks everyone for your help.
