Re: Since I've upgraded to version 23.1 I've notice everything is significantly slower in Premier Pr

I have owned 4 versions of Adobe Premiere Elements (12, 14, 2020, and 2023) and they all crash and lag and done so on three different computers the last crashing on a Core i9-13900K, 64GB RAM, and 3060Ti.  The problem is with their software and with all those versions crashing and having performance issues when editing, I would say Adobe has not bothered or cared to address those core issues with their software.  

I can edit perfectly in other applications like Davinci Resolve with none of those issues.   I cannot say I will buy another version of Adobe's software again.  I thought maybe this new version would address the crashing problems but nope.   It is by all practicable purposes, unusable.

    I have far less of a computer than John.  I've used most versions of Premiere Elements since version 9 on a series of laptops.  The last two have been "gamers" with an i7 and 16 gigs of RAM.   Premiere Elements doesn't crash on me.   

     

    The challenge is solving it for you Greg.  And, in a forum like this, that can be hard.   

     

    On the other hand, if your goal is to denigrate Adobe and promote Resolve, there are better places to do that.  Resolve excels2 at being complex, powerful, an abundance of difficult tools and comes with a steep learning curve.  Premiere Pro is similar.  Premiere Elements aims at making it easier and quicker to learn.  It includes the others don't like a capable background music system.

    >and 3060Ti

     

    Are you using the Studio driver or the Gaming driver?

    nVidia Driver Downloads https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
    -for all Adobe programs use the STUDIO driver, not the GAMING driver
    -To achieve the highest level of reliability, Studio Drivers undergo extensive
    -testing against multi-app creator workflows and multiple revisions of the top
    -creative applications from Adobe to Autodesk and beyond
