I changed the language to English to send you the system info, and now Photoshop starts immediately. I don't know how it works

Was this the first time you'd tried opening Photoshop with the other language? 

I wonder if it was installing language packs? 

If you had tried multiple times and it was slow every time, then that theory is obviously wrong.

If you'd only opened it the once, then maybe...

If you look at the splash screen, it lists the sub-modules as they are loaded. So you can see which module/component is hanging.

 

Also, post the full Help > System Info from Photoshop.
