I'm using Windows 8.1. Premiere Pro CC 2015 crashes when I'm editing videoes, when I'm rendering videoes and when I'm exporting videoes. I've tried reinstalling, but it didn't solve the problem. What should I do?

    Stumbled upon this when I was about to create a new topic......I'm having the same problem T-T Premiere Pro CC 2015, Windows 10, and frankly from what I can tell the specs don't even matter at this point since the question doesn't seem to be getting answered by anyone (except the mercury playback solution).

    So? Nobody from Adobe?

    A thread still not resolved after more than a year?...
    I don't understand why a such powerful company can accept this situation here.

    (so many things I don't understand...)

    Hi Paspas66,

    The issue that is discussed in this thread is related to an earlier version of Premiere Pro (9.0). Since then, a lot has changed under the hood.

    We usually mark the thread as correct if it solves the OP's issue. This thread is not marked as answered because people who contributed on this thread had different computer specs and for some of them, the issue was resolved. Hence, there was no definitive answer. Given the variety of hardware setups that Windows OS supports, it becomes a lot difficult to have a single answer that works for everybody. 

    That said, I'd advice you to create a new discussion mentioning your computer specs and the detailed error log so that we can help you troubleshoot the issue.

    Thank you for your patience!

    How do I revert back to 2014?  2015 crashes and has wasted weeks of my time. I can't believe how unstable this software is and it's not cheap

    I had this issue with Premiere Pro on my Ultrabook, after three hours of trouble shooting I worked out that it was because I had GPU Acceleration on when my Ultrabook only has integrated graphics. Try changing Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (opencl) to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only if you don’t have dedicated graphics.

    Same problem here. Windows 10 and Adobe Premier CC 2015.

    The entire computer goes to a blue screen and restarts every time I try to render my project!

    Come on Adobe. you have always been a respected Software provider. You can do better than this!

    I can tell you that the issue is there on a very fresh install of Windows 7 64-bit (first thing I installed as soon as Windows 7 was installed).

    System:

    Asus X99 deluxe motherboard

    Asus GTX580

    5820k CPU

    Intel SSD

    Here's a screen shot of my issue:

    In this picture I'm rendering the timeline. In addition to this crash, the Media Export crashed and Adobe Media Encoder Crashed.

    I have updated my video drivers to the latest in hopes of curing whatever issue is going on here. I also disabled GPU playback while deleting the previews all to no avail

    Specs:
    HP Z840 Workstation

    Intel Xeon CPU E5-2650 v3 @2.3GHz

    64GB RAM

    NVIDIA Quadro K5200 driver version 10.18.13.5330

    On a separate issue, PP is also doing something weird with my bluetooth headset. I haven't searched the forums for an answer to this.

    Thanks -bb

    Since installing windows 10 Premiere Pro CC constantly crashes while starting up. Laptop is a Toshiba P50t-b10e stock. All drivers have been updated to the latest versions through windows updates.

    Same issue on my PC. I can't export or use Media Encoder. I can edit videos but not export.

    Uninstalled my Nvidia drivers, CC, removed caches etc.  Same thing. I even set encoding to software only.

    Come on Adobe! I've now installed updates for InDesign and Illustrator, but no updates to fix the Premiere Pro problems so many people are experiencing. I'm still getting playback issues and audio out of sync error messages, so something isn't working properly.

    Let us know that you're doing something to fix the problem, or even if you're not doing anything at all. JUST SAY SOMETHING.

    What is the latest info on the Premiere Pro CC 2015 performance issue? I am having a problem where PP CC 2015 crashes randomly as I am editing and try to playback from my timeline. Tech support said it was a hardware incompatibility with my audio hardware and told me it was being worked on. Things appeared normal after he adjusted my hardware settings but now the problem has returned. I am running:

    OS Name    Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise

    Version    6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601

    System Type    x64-based PC

    Processor    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz, 2701 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)

    Installed Physical Memory (RAM)    32.0 GB
