It started from Premiere Elements 2021.

 

Ever since the Premiere Elements team is trying to implement hardware acceleration in the Windows version to compete with it's rivals, the performance is falling down!

I also have managed to hack PE2022 to make use of my NVIDIA Quadro P4000

I have opened a 2021 project and my God! How bad an application can perform!! It cannot even play the timeline. Once you start planning, you cannot pause as the system becomes unresponsive to the controls!!

 

Not sure what Adobe has been doing, they are improving and planning to kill it!!

I would really love to get a refund and hope they will really make some improvement someday.

I purchased Premiere Elements 2022 in July for an M2 Macbook and had similiar issues.  Adobe Elements is a total scam and shouldn't be purchased by anyone.  Sadly I didn't return it immediately.  It's not optimized to run on Apple Silicon.  They have a new version but they want me to pay and additional $79 for an upgrade fee.  So that's $180 for software that can barely run one 1080p clip on the timeline without stuttering / laggy.  It sounds like Adobe has the same grift going on the Windows side as well.  Sorry I can't help with your issue.  Just know that it's on the OS X side as well.

    I think you need to learn the definition of the word "scam", Joseph.

     

    It may not work to your satisfaction, and for that you can cheerfully receive a refund. There are alternatives that will likely better fit your workflow.

     

    But a "scam" that "shouldn't be purchased by anyone"? I don't think so. And I've been using the program on a variety of computers -- both Mac and PC -- and editing many types of video without a problem since 2004. 

     

    Which doesn't invalidate your experience, of course. But just know yours is not by any means typical. And that's no "scam".

    I'll learn the definition of "scam" when Adobe learns the definition of "works" and "customer support".  I use Premiere Pro for work --- which I love, but I don't have a personal license. 

     

    And absolutely no one should buy the 2022 version of their Elements line if they own Apple Silicon.  The software doesn't run properly.  Period.  And for them to advertise that it's compatible  is a scam.    There aren't any major changes between the 2022 / 2023 version of their software other than it actually runs properly on M1/M2.  If they cared about their customers --- which they clearly don't --- they'd give a free upgrade for anyone running 2022 Elements on Apple Silicon.  The fact that I have to pay $120 for an upgrade is utter BS. Or even $90 with a Black Friday Deal.

     

    Glad you haven't had issue with their software.  You'd definitely change your opinion if you ran their 2022 Elements line on an M1/M2 on Apple Silicon and shelled out money for it.

     

    Adobe can do better.   They should be embarrased.

      Try turning on Hardware acceleration.

       

      I believe you can get your money back within one month of purchase.

      Most do not have slow performance with machines that have the specification yours has. 

       

      In addition to Ann's suggestion, try checking in Preferences, Audio Hardware that the Default Input is set to No Input.  Oddly, on some machines the audio processing can somehow "overload" and bring Premiere Elements to a crawl.

      • Hardware accelaration is ON.
      • Is it just me, cause I fould when I do not use any microphone, the performance goes bad, but when I use a device it performs better.

      I think this team in Adobe has no clue what is going on.
