Premiere Elements 2022 Freezes

When working on a project, playback freezes and when I restart it will play for 10-15 seconds or less and freeze again. The only way I can playback the whole project is to unplug my network connection. Premiere Elements is the only program that does this. This is not normal, does Adobe have a fix for this bug?

Try turning off the Adobe Updater in Startup.

I have v2021 and do not have your problem, so I am wondering if v2022 has an 'aggressive' check for updates process that is going to the internet and then locking

Setting auto updater to manual appears to be the Fix!

What are the complete computer specs, including hard drives (how many, what kind, what is on each, what capacity, and how full)?
