I hope this is in the right place. So, premiere worked perfectly (well, not perfectly, but good enough) on my old computer, and did what I needed it to do. It did this despite an old GPU, less powerful CPU, and low hard drive space on all drives. Now though, upon upgrading to a new computer, it worked just fine for the first month or so. Though now all the sudden it wants to keep crashing all the time. I would think upgrading to a new computer would make it run better but apparently not. I can't even use premiere long enough to edit a single clip, let alone a video. Program: Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Version: Not sure, but absolute latest version - Just reinstalled again today for the second time. 2017-12-13. Problem: Original Install: After the first month, the program would crash at random intervals while editing, especially when trying to use tools such as pan and zoom. Then could not open a project at all until I restarted the program, though could import video for the most part fine. After restarting the computer I could use the program fine for a few minutes til it crashed again, and then crashes became way more frequent, and the program unusable. To fix these problems, I decided to reinstall. Now I got new problems! After Reinstall so far: Premiere crashes when I switch to Expert Mode, when I attempt to import a .f4v file, when I try to use pan and zoom / other tools / random times, and sometimes upon importing avi's. Simply clickling the expert button freezes and crashes the program. So, it pretty crashes all the time. I got 50 GB Free Hard drive space on the drive to which it's installed (C) and 1 TB drive space on the other. I am using Windows 10 Version 1709 OS Build 16299.125 64 bit OS. 16 GB RAM. and I got a decent CPU, and far above average GPU. I don't notice any real spikes or max-outs of either upon when the program crashes. On top of all this, when I actually work past the errors, when I try exporting AVI video (so it's actually a format that can be uploaded) the quality comes out awful. So, yeah, I'm feeling pretty frustrated with this program and don't know what to try. Hope someone can help.
