I have removed my addons folder temporarily, that didn't fix it. I have also ran the repair tool, that didn't fix it. The one thing that did fix it was changing WTF, Interface, and Cache folders to have a .old at the end of them, but this doesn't seem like a permanent fix since addons don't show up.
Edit: I should also note that this randomly started happening yesterday. Before that it was working fine.
From what you've said, it really is likely that your issue is caused by your addons.
Since just removing your addons folder doesn't do a full UI reset, as quite a lot of the addons remaining configuration files and cached data is still loaded. Even if the actual addons aren't. Which is why renaming all 3 of the folders fixed it.
So please rename the folders again, test the game out for a while and only then re-install your addons. But please only re-install addons that are updated for this expansion.
Good luck :)
I figured this out after removing the WTF, Interface and Cache folders, allowing WoW to create new ones. Everything worked fine like this. Then I moved addons to the new folder one by one to find the culprit. It turns out none of the addons were the problem. So I started to mix and match the old folders with the new. Using the old WTF and Interface folders with the new cache folder worked perfectly.

Thanks! I just tested renaming the cache-folder and relaunched the game. Loading was much quicker!
Simply rename your "Cache" folder to "Cache.old" and welcome back glorious fast loading!
Note: going by size it looks like the ".\World of Warcraft\Cache\ADB\enUS" folder is the culprit with multiple large DBCache.bin files where the 'active' one is 164MB in my case. Simply renaming that single file (DBCache.bin) has the same end result as renaming the Cache folder.
So I'm just supposed to keep doing it every week? There isn't a more permanent fix?

If you are still having trouble with this, go through the steps to clear your UI (addons) (even if you do not have any addons installed). Once done, repair the game files and retest.

I am having the same problem, clean installed several times and repaired and ran without addons nothing works.
Iv’e had a very unstable connection since the 14th of december. When ever i get a loadingscreen, change zone, switch layer, enter raid or enter instances i spike to over 20k ms and i have to restart the game up to 15 times to get a semi-decent ms. Ive re-installed the game, repaired the game, deleted my addons, new folders, set my dns to google, tried different routers, no router, new cables, wifi, tried different pc etc. My ISP told me it all looked good from their part and they cant help me.
Cant submit ticket since when pressing submit the circle turns around a couple of times and nothing happens.
At least things ingame respond to you.
I just thought that non responding error was windows doing that anti malware executable 100% disk clogging action. Its in task manager. And its a pain in the ayassssss.
