Effects Panel - All Drop-down-Menus empty

Installing Nvidia Studio Driver 591.44 fixed the issue in some places (Lumetri LUT-picker), but there are still emtpy drop-down-menus in other places (Preferences). 
@jamieclarke, can you please look into this? 

@jamieclarke, any news on this? 

@jamieclarke  Oh no, the bug is gone in the effects panel, but still persists in menus like "Render and Replace" 😞

Oh, there's an update to Premiere Pro 25.6.3 - that actually seems to solve the problem! 😄

@jamieclarke Much appreciated ❤️ Can you please have a Colleague from the Bridge-Team look into this one? 

• With GPU accelerated UI: ON -- Empty dropdown-menus
• With GPU accelerated UI: OFF -- No dropdown-menus at all

Hi @pablo__0231 - In your preferences > general do you have "GPU accelerated UI rendering" checked or unchecked? Can you try both and let us know if it helps your issue.

@jamieclarke, yes, as is usual on a productivity system. 

Plugins: 

• Maxon Red Giant
• Maxon Universe
  
  

Background Tasks

Hi @pablo__0231 - Do you have any third party plugins or panels installed?

Do you have any background apps or utilities running? Some third party software (like antivirus tools, screen recorders, or system optimizers) can sometimes interfere with Premiere Pro. 

@jamieclarke, sure, here's the full report:

• Steps to reproduce – Update to Premiere Pro 25.6.2, problem is immediately visible in all projects.
• Expected result – The drop-down-menu should show the available commands when clicked
• Actual result – The drop-down-menu is empty when clicked 
• Screen recording – If you think it might be helpful, include a recording of your screen, showing the issue.  
  
• Adobe Premiere Pro version – Premiere Pro 25.6.2

  • Does it affect new projects?  Yes
  • When did the problem begin? With the update to 25.6.2. Reverting to 25.5 solves the problem, but it's only a workaround.
