Adobe Premiere Pro 2023 (Version 23.1) hangs while loading files

It worked on the latest version (23.3) and the latest NVIDIA Studio Driver! Thank you so much @Kevin-Monahan !

Hi horeseru,

Have you tried v.23.2 yet? You can also update to the latest studio drivers. The latest ones are pretty stable from what I hear.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi @Kevin-Monahan 

I've tried clean installing NVIDIA driver 517.40 but I'm still stuck on 75% when opening projects that were saved with Premiere Pro 23.1 or 23.0. It was fine when opening Premiere Pro v 22. projects.

I tried downgrading my projects and opening them in Premiere Pro v 22.6.4 but they were still stuck at 75%.

Please help, there are important works in my project files.

Thank you.

Hi FocusPulling

The status has not changed. My advice; keep ignoring the "Premiere Pro Update is available" as long as it is version 23.1. I am hoping that Adobe will address the issue in a later update. Until then I am running Version 23.0.

What is the status of this gigantic, affects-nearly-everyone, cripples-Premiere bug?  I am not updating to the "latest" version despite the nags from the Creative Cloud app, until Adobe finally acknowledges and addresses this (instead of blaming Nvidia even though their latest drivers worked with the immediately preceding Premiere version).

You can reinstall it from the Creative Cloud application.

Thanks,
Kevin

I installed Nvidia driver 517.48 and i still can't open my project in Premiere. How to roll back the defect Premiere version to the last stable one?

thx

Hi Kevin,

thanks for your reply.

Yes, my NVIDIA driver version is 522.30

To your suggestion to downgrade my NVIDIA driver makes little sense though. This driver works perfectly in Adobe Premiere Pro (32.0). Downgrading it because of a problem in version 32.1 would be counterproductive. Instead of going backward, moving forward, Adobe should fix the issue asap as the error is apparently found in the Adobe upgrade. 

Thank you for the added details. I upvoted the bug report.

The triggering action that caused Premiere to melt down, was entirely Adobe's fault.  This is an easy logical deduction because of the fact that all prior and current Nvidia drivers work perfectly fine with the very recent 2023 update of Premiere.  When Adobe compiled the 23.1 update, it was Adobe itself who committed this failure that didn't exist in 23.0, regardless of current/prior GPU drivers installed.

Instead of taking ten seconds or so to boot up Premiere on an Nvidia system to see if it works, Adobe just sorta went "meh" as usual and published the broken update.
