Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes
Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• I have nothing in the Community folder, I have disabled every possible package, I reinstalled the sim yesterday AM, I reset my cloud save, I reset Nvidia CP settings, and it just took 9:19 to load the sim just now. The biggest issue is Activating Packages just sits for the longest time at 14% and then, when it resumes moving, it slowly proceeds.
I am out of options on what else I can do to reduce the installation configuration of the sim. This is not how this behaved prior to 1.2.7.0.
EDIT:
I looked in the “Base” package and discovered I could disable all of that, too, which I did.Load time: 3:10 and it did not hang at Activating Packages 14%
What in the Base package is causing the load time to be 3x what it is when that package is enabled vs. disabled?
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

EDIT2:
I spent more time on this and noted that after I disabled all the Base content, upon restart the sim automatically reenabled just the aircraft and none of the other content. So those were enabled (without my knowing) when I timed the load at 3:10.
For science, I then went in and enabled just the aircraft for the Deluxe and Premium content packages.
There was zero change in loading time 3:10 to the second.
Therefore, in my case, the extended loading time since 1.2.7.0 is absolutely caused by the scenery, the animals, the challenges, and/or any other non-aircraft
relatedcontent – it may even be some of these 2020 liveries (example in screenshot) that did not get automatically enabled.
