I had no problems Friday- now today on Monday I can hardly use any command in Premiere Pro Beta without it is crashing. All my Adobe apps is up to date. Hope you can fix this issue, what ever is causing it.

thank you for this! I thought I was going crazy after optimizing everything and it's still crashing every other minute. The rollback to 26.1 is a life saver.

The program crashes when I try to select clips in the timeline. I'm working on subtitles right now, and often when I try to select text clips, the program freezes for a second and then closes completely. It's worth just trying to select them and goodbye. watch the video

I am experiencing a critical crash in Premiere Pro whenever I attempt to select all frames/clips within a sequence. Additionally, I am unable to troubleshoot the issue because the Adobe Diagnostics app fails to open.

Troubleshooting steps already taken:

  1. Project Migration: Moved the project file to an external hard drive.
  2. New Sequence: Copied all frames/clips into a fresh sequence to rule out sequence corruption.
  3. Clean Reinstall: Uninstalled and reinstalled all Adobe Creative Cloud applications.
  4. Scratch Disks: Manually cleared/reset all Scratch Disks.
  5. Diagnostics App: Attempted a clean download and run of the Diagnostics tool, but it will not open.


Observation:
Since the crash happens specifically during selection, and I've already reinstalled the software and cleared the cache/scratch disks, I am stuck. I cannot provide logs because the diagnostics tool won't run.

Very unstable.  Shuts down repeatidly and I only am doing a 30 second commercial.  Wish I had done this in the regular version.

When I copy the tranform properties from the effects panel, the PPro crashes a few moments later.  I've had this happen several times before reporting.  I confirm I have the latest available version of PPro.  My system is:

Windows 11
Intel Core Ultra 9 285k
128 GB RAM
Geoforce 5080
Meg Z890 ACE motherboard
Drives are Samsung SSD 990 Pro 4Tb

I don't know why, but the app frequently forces close.

I'm using the Premiere Pro Beta, but it keeps crashing and shutting down.

Se cierra si copio atributos, se cierra si duplico algo en la línea del tiempo. Es estresante.
