Do I really need 250 Plug Ins for InDesign?

[chrisdirectfx]

Hello,

First let me state that I'm not an IT person. I've inherited my job from previous graphic artists.

InDesign takes roughly 20 minutes to open, which is crazy, and I can see that it also registers 250 plug ins. I can't magine I'd need so many. How do I know which ones I need and which I don't?

What would happen if I just reset to the basic InDesign app? 

Also I might note that the Plug Ins appear to be buried in the system whereas they used to be easier to locate.

Any assistance would be most appreciated, thank you. 🙂

Knowledge how to use a tool and it's internal workings are two different things 😉

Of course, there is the old joke of "20 years of experience" vs. "1 year of experience 20 times over"...😜
