Long project loading then cubase freezes

Thanks for assistance, I’ll try a few more times to close Cubase completely and open projects via file explorer. I’ll write if it helps.
Yesterday I noticed Waves plugins taking too much time to appear in inserts: I’ve recorded a video of adding NLS Channel Stereo taking 18 seconds to load. Is that Waves problem?
P.S. I’ve got Waves Central installed to handle plugins and their licenses. As far as I know I can’t use them without that heavy clumsy app.
