Premiere Rush 'Not Responding'

Hello everybody,

In May 2020 I still had this issue and after quite a lot of research, I found out how to use Rush with zero issues. In the CC app, go to the Beta applications, and there is a beta version of Premiere Rush which works much better than the original one.

Hope this will have helped you

Similar issues on my Dell G3 / i5 / 8GB / Win10, but with a twist. It seems here however that after the number of edits in the sequence starts getting high, then Rush starts doing the not-responding thing. Rebooting doesn't seem to fix the issue as the Rush starts not-responding almost immediately after opening the project. New projects work fine, until the sequence gets a little complex, and then it hangs. Sometimes I can force-quit rush, other times I have to hard-restart the computer as it freezes the entire system (sometimes the mouse cursor will still respond, other times the cursor freezes on screen too). Running the latest version of Rush, with all OS updates and driver updates applied.

As a side note (perhaps a topic for another thread), Illustrator is behaving really slow / not-responding on this same computer 😞

So I have 8gb Ram AMD Ryzen 7 64bit with Radeon Vega and GTX1650 why am I having a CONSISTENT non responding message? I was half way through my edit was working fine last night and today I open first the audio for the song I was using kept popping like my speaker was blown but the video audio played and the video as well with NO PROBLEM after rebooting now everytime I try to press play it WONT and stops responding??? I updated ALL my windows and system requirements I've rebooted 3 times and reinstalled what the hell is going on?! Literally spent $1,500 for  a laptop that could handle my editing and now the program doesn't even work? LOL

I got the exactly same problem with Rush.

Me too!

Just installed Rush - even the tutorial locks up and goes "not responding" multiple times per minute.  Tried rebooting.

I have a top tier HP Spectre x360 with i7 8th Gen, 16 GB, Discrete Video, Win 10 with all updates all other programs work fine

Adobe!  Doesn't inspire confidence....

I have exactly the same issue. It is installed on my c drive and i am  not synching. Just clicking on anything is enough to make it freeze. This is a new lenovo yoga 730. Hardly anything on it it mo. Smacks of a bug to me. 

I have the same issue. I've checked out Adobe Rush (version 1.0.2) , which I think looks great as well appears simple to use, matching the look and feel of other applications in the Adobe product range such as Lightroom CC.

However...every time I try to do something the software goes 'not responding'.

• I have tried a couple of GoPro videos as well as the Adobe samples.
• I have Windows 10  I5 laptop, 8GB and Solid state disk which handles Lightroom CC flawlessly and although its not a super spec laptop I would have thought it could handle Rush.
• Seems like this is the software, I have also rebuild my laptop just in case to no avail.
• I hope the next patch will improve as I would like to subscribe to this applicable.

I think this is a known issue of installing Adobe Apps other than C Drive. This rises issues on other threads which produce so much bugs when you install to other than C Drive. It quite annoying but need some manual config to delete/alter files to prevent this behavior continue. Known issues as Flickering Cursor always happen to those who install Adobe App on other than C Drive. Hope this issue will persists in future.

I have the exact same problems. Gets not responding when I try to do something like scrubbing, adding filters or basiclly anything!

Hey JaronD!

That's super weird. I wonder what's going on!

Which version of Rush are you using? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
