 I suggest you clear all your plugins first. So just close Studio and delete these folders: 
 c:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\16\Plugins 
 c:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\16\Plugins 
 c:\ProgramData\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\16\Plugins 
 Then, reinstall your apps using the integrated appstore. 
 If the problem is still there after you reinstall you probably need a Studio reset. To do this just close Trados Studio and then rename this folder: 
 c:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16\ 
 to 
 c:\Users\ %username%\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16_old\ 
 Finally restart Trados Studio and try again.

Only this solution worked Paul, for both the Weaver and the Subtitling plugins, so the pain of installing my full set of plugins REMAIN! Thanks for your help on this, but indeed this has nothing to do with my amazing setup as you mentioned, but it has to do with the mechanism SDL Studio is dealing with plugins every time there is an update or cumulative batch or a new service release. I can not imagine how plugins would have any contradiction if they are tested to work together side by side. Also I can not imagine that having other SSD drives or many partitions would impact the behaviour of SDL Studio. Anyway, thanks a lot for your support on this. SDL should be proud of someone like you who jumps to the rescue. 
 Renaming this: ...\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\16 
 is the solution then. 
 Alison, fear not, this will do the job, so time to give your labtop a break.
