Adobe Premiere 2026 crashing on launch after downloading Blackmagic Raw Plugin

Krisi S. · 2026-01-27T20:01:15+00:00

Adobe 2026 crashes when I launch a project that uses 6k BRAW footage. I downloaded the latest Blackmagic Raw plugin since I updated Adobe Premiere to 2026. It won’t load my project unless I disable the plugin. I already created proxies of this footage in the 2025 version of Premiere, but now it won’t relink to the BRAW footage and only uses Proxies. Operating system – Apple M2 Max OS Sequoia 15.7.3

Hi @Krisi S.,

Thank you for reporting a problem and sorry you’ve been experiencing issues.

Are the crashes occurring with this specific project only? Are you able to open up any other projects with the plugin enabled at all? (Like a new project, a project that has no BRAW footage, or a project with different braw footage, etc)

Sorry for the frustration,
Dani
