Very slow and crashing after updating to 2022 version

Am I the only one who's PC has become very slow after upgrading my CC softwares?

 

Everything crashes and the rendering is taking much much longer than it used to be, and I keep getting a notification that the process can't be completed because there's no enough RAM though I'm using a gaming PC with 16 GB Ram!

You're not the only one. The v22 update is a slow buggy piece of hot f*cking garbage. I went back to AE 2021 (v18) and it was like having lead weights suddenly freed from around my ankles.

Just upgraded to a 3080 RTX and Core i9, a pc which is 4x faster than my last PC that I used for over 2 years with Premier Pro. This PC powers through 3D software like Blender, yet I can't even get half res SD files to play without lag. It's truly an embarrassment what Adobe gets away with. Blender is free and treats their users like royalty.

I'm using a newer Macbook Pro with 32 GB Ram and it's awful. I get the spinning pinwheel everytime I touch something. I've tried everything from proxies to using different render engines. I'm so behind on work.

me too...32gb ram on my MBP and it keeps telling me I'm out of memory with over 300gb of storage.

I am just going to go back to 2021 until 2022 becomes usable.  Nothing is rendering and it is taking literal days to put together a 15 sec extreme rough draft.  Everything is slow due to the render issue.

Same problem here. Until Adobe fix the new problems with the 2022 version I´m just using the 2021 version that just works as it should.

I just bought a Macbook Pro M1 Max fully decked out, and was shocked to see the worst performance I've ever seen from Premiere on the new version. I don't know if it's the update, but I'm unable to scrub through to the lightest timeline ever. Full of 720p videos and pngs. It's is utterly frustrating as it has ruined my experience with my new macbook. Not only that, but After Effects has also been as bad as any 16gb memory computer. I will try to downgrade to 2021, and see how that goes. Premiere Pro is my livelihood, so this is beyond frustrating.

Same problems and with a high-end professional workstation. I posted another (but more detailed) topic around this same issue partly just to keep it at the top, as well as highlight that this problem is not our problem at all: it's an Adobe problem.

Thank you for this posting! It saved me..It is incredible that adobe does not write about this issue on Creative Cloud along with info about new updates. I have spendt a frustrating week, googeling, reinstalling, rebuilding project, buying new external harddrive for cache storing, plus plus. I am no back on After Effects CC2021 and everything works fine.

Definitely an Adobe problem.

It worked fine for a week. I did a bench test and it was twice as fast as AE2021. However, when I close the app it freezes and I have to force quit. Also, when I render multiple comps it loads forever and never renders anything. So I have to force quit.

Hi all,

 

We appreciate you writing in. We'll look into the issue. 

Have you checked if there is any Windows update pending to install?

 

Let us know.

My system is fully up-to-date. I appreciate the answer but find it very hard to believe anybody is going to be looking in to anything. We've had YEARS of support people telling us they would "look in to it" only to have another release come out with new and shiny features (meant to boost sales) and all the old issues ignored. Considering the amounts of complaints already with MFR it's clear that this update was not ready for release. The fact that one of the main selling points of this new version is broken should embarass a lot of people.....

This is a complete joke. MFR is utter garbage. Turning it off gets rid of most problems with ram previews. Go to preferences / Previews and turn off multi-thread. Adobe has officially taken the video game release model where it's more important to release something and fix the problems in patches then it is to wait until something is totally solid before sending it out. I legitemately feel betrayed by a program I've been using for over 20 years....

Why isn't this the official answer? It's fixed mine as well and has the most likes.
