Sarah,

Maybe  you and I are the only ones with this problem, i.e. RR hangs 
on "Loadiing Plug-ins"

It just happened to me again and this time I just replaced the 
"Saves" folder in the "Components" folder and that restored the 
functionality.

I had just been having a problem with saving a stack and had to force quite.

For what its worth,

Jim
