Those were probably the Prefs file(s). You should re-name them, before you
Delete them.
Also, watch the splash screen carefully, when you launch. There is one line of
small black type, that will tell you what PS is loading. Note what that line
states, before the loading stops. That will tell you if your problem is with a
font, a plug-in, or something else. If it IS a font, or plug-in, Pref files
removal will likely not solve the issue. To launch PS without the Prefs files,
hold down Shift-Ctrl-Alt, when you double-click on the PS icon. PS will ask
you if you wish to re-do the Prefs (forget the actual, correct syntax of that
message) and click OK. Again, if your problem is a font, a plug-in, or some
other problem, this will likely not help.
