Bridge CS6 crashes on startup after upgrade from CS5

Yesterday I upgraded to Photoshop CS6 using an install disk mailed from Adobe. Photoshop CS6 itself appears to be working fine, but both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Bridge CS6 crash on startup with the standard Windows popup ("Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working. Windows is searching for a solution..."). Bridge CS5 still works great, as it did before the CS6 installation.

The Windows Event Viewer shows the following message for the crash of the 64-bit version:

Faulting application name: Bridge.exe, version: 5.0.0.399, time stamp: 0x4f5ec28e

Faulting module name: MMXCore.8BX_unloaded, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4f308138

Exception code: 0xc0000005

Fault offset: 0x000007fee2694c10

Faulting application start time: 0x01cd2de2890d2563

Faulting module path: MMXCore.8BX

Report Id: c7df83bc-99d5-11e1-9969-1c6f65d33927

and the following for the crash of the 32-bit version:

Faulting application name: Bridge.exe, version: 5.0.0.399, time stamp: 0x4f5ec62d

Faulting module name: MMXCore.8BX_unloaded, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4f308107

Faulting process id: 0xe58

Faulting application start time: 0x01cd2de2487d6d23

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS6\Bridge.exe

Faulting module path: MMXCore.8BX

Report Id: 88541db9-99d5-11e1-9969-1c6f65d33927

I've rebooted multiple times and tried reinstalling from the upgrade disk, but the problem persists.

The installation is on a machine dedicated to Photoshop whose system info is included below. I'm running a multi-disk setup with 1 SSD as my C drive, another SSD for Temp and Scratch (in different partitions on the same SSD), and a RAID 5 array of hard drives for the actual image files. To my knowledge I'm running with the latest drivers of everything.

I'm not sure how to move forward at this point. Any information or assistance would be most appreciated.

Hi David,

Can Bridge work if you run it as administrator? If yes, will it generate a temp file named like “Photoshop Tempxxxxxx” under the root of C drive when Bridge launch? If still yes, it should be a same issue as what others encountered. And we are investigating this issue now.

Did you change the Windows TEMP or User TEMP directory to RAMdisk or other directory? if true, this may a cause of the bridge into crashes. Even worse I can not paste my drawing from illustrator to photoshop

This happened to me, when I change it back to default, the problem disappears.

I may change the bridge cache to RAMdisk, but Adobe CS6 does not allow me to change the User or windows TEMP folders to it.

This problem was corrected with last Bridge update. However, not sure about a RAMdisk. THat was popular 15 years ago, but not today. Don't think it will work with USB flash drive.

By the way everything works better if in defalult locations on the C drive. This is where programs will look for them. Cache can be on another drive without problems.

I have had this same problem. Eventually I found the Adobe Application Manager and updated my CS6 Suite and the problem with 64 bit Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working failure was gone. There is an update check under the top menu Help tab also. Difficult to believe that Adobe doesn't change the latest download to include the updates.

Having the same problem here too after upgrade from CS5 Extended to CS6 Extended. I did not install the Beta version. Uninstalled CS5 first and did clean install of CS6. Bridge starts fine but crashes out as soon as the main window appears. Photoshop itself is fine. CS6 package installed on SSD and using internal hard drive as a scratch disk. Resent paying out for the best package in the business and then having to ensure I run as Administrator just to use it.

Adobe - we need a fix for this now.

Interestingly enough a user had this same problem posted in the Photoshop Forum yesterday. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4388012

The OP said he would wait until Adobe helped, so no answer from that post.

The problem lies in the defaulting module MMXCore.88X. Not sure what this means as have only seen this on these 2 posts. A web search does not provide many answers.

Let us know what you find or do not find, as this may be a new problem with CS6.

Did you use CS6 beta? And if so did you unstall it first?

Did you migrate any CS5 stuff to CS6?

I did see that other thread, but there seems to be more confusion that clarity there so I am hoping that someone from Adobe will chime in here. MMXCore.88X has been part of the Photoshop installation for several releases now, so again I'm hoping the Adobe folks will have some insight.

I would recomend you visit the ps thread I referenced occasionally and comment as needed. The Photoshop Forum it is a lot more active and the more eyes that better the chance of getting a solultion.

Even though that is the wrong fourm for a Bridge question, it is an unusual problem that may be related to CS6. You essentially have the CS6 beta program that was coded in March. The recoding will take a little longer so keep your eye peeled for any dot releases. Bridge was recoded as it is now a 64 bit program, but I see from your crash reports it crashes in both programs.
