Hi all. I cannot get PP 25.6 to launch on Windows 11. The splash screen appears, then the welcome screen, and then it closes. I have tried lauching with SHIFT, clicking all the boxes, and same result. I uninstalled it and re-installed it from Cloud Desktop, with the same result.

The full version of Premiere launches with no trouble. What could be causing this?

I have tried all and found the solitions, the windows is not communicating with the graphic card driver witth the manufacturar, manually install the graphic card driver to the latest version from the official website.

I had the same problem, I solved it by holding shift while opening Premiere Pro, checked the box to disable third-party plugins and it opened without issues. The first time it asked me if I wanted to enable the new AI selection feature, I enabled it and it restarted causing the crash again, so every time I'm going to use this version I need to open it while holding shift and select the option to disable plugins.

Quick update. I did all the steps recommended in the Cleaner tool, and reinstalled PP 25.6. I trie to launch it, but it still crashed shortly after a window appeared asking me to use the new masking tools. I tried both agrreng to the masking tool, and skipping it. Crashed both ways.
