And for the sake of letting folks know what resolution worked for me, I checked Event Viewer and noticed twinapi.appcore.dll so first trying reinstall via Adobe XD Cloud app which didn't work, following those instructions did.

Lovely; looking forward to seeing what XD has and if my team might usefully start using it instead of our existing mish-mash of preferred apps.

One small note: I wasn't sure what apps to shut down on that step that says to kill all related processes... which actually need to be shut down and how do I know what the related processes are? Could that be clarified for folks who aren't as kill-task-happy as me in future?

[Preran]

Good catch. Kill all related processes - this refers to all Adobe XD related processes.

So I also have this issue - uninstalled all the Adobe apps, used the cleaner and after a couple of reboots I tried to install Creative Cloud / Adobe XD again in Windows 10 machine. Program starts with a blank window, closes after 2 seconds. Haven't been able to get it to work. Can someone please help me?

[Preran]

Just to be sure, are you on an official version of Windows 10 that is required to install Adobe XD? See Adobe XD System requirements​ for more info.

Thanks,

Preran

[Charly Traarbach]

Hi Preran,

Yes - I have an official version of Windows 10 Pro. I have recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 on this device. I have checked the Windows 10 updater and it tells me I have the latest version installed.

Greetings,

Charly

Thank you for the info. The quickest way to get in touch with us would be by using this link Contact Customer Care

If you would like to me to raise a support case, please send me the info I requested for in the message marked as correct.

Why not just explain the solution on this post, seems like you're creating a lot of unnecessary duplicated work considering this is one of the top results for a Google search on this issue--which seems prevalent.

I am also having this issue, but I don't feel like going through a support case so I'm going to use marvelapp as a solution (marvelapp.com)

[chockh16104841]

Your approach is bad in my opinion, you should tell your solution to all others...so others can see it

[Preran]

Can you provide me with the following info?

1. Open Windows Event Viewer
2. Go to Windows Logs > Application
3. Check for Error

Do you see twinapi.appcore.dll listed against the faulting module path?

Error: Exception code: 0xc000027b

your advice worked Preran ... thx

[coderdecker]

Hi Preran!

I had this same exact issue on a NEW install of Windows 10 Home with ALL Windows updates installed!

I installed the Adobe XD downloaded from adobe.com and after install, I immediately got the white screen for 3 seconds and then it closes!

What fixed it for me was deleting all %temp% files, or atleast all the ones I could delete and rebooted my computer.

That seems to fix the issue for me! I am now working in Adobe XD for the first time!

[Preran]

Thank you for sharing the solution here, much appreciate it. This should serve to guide other users that are not served by the solution I previously posted.

Have a wonderful day.

Thanks,

Preran

Hi, I've been trying to use XD for a whole year but it's always crashing, I've installed, resinstalled, deleted temp files, did every solution but nothing has sorted out my problem, here is my event viewer log.

I see that my Windows.UI.Xaml.dll is the problem...is there a fix?

We'll take it from there.

Hi there,

Hi there.

I have performed that, I have narrowed down my issue to

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\System32\Windows.UI.Xaml.dll

Someone else had the same faulting module path

Adobe XD crashes  reply 14. "solved that by going to C:\Program Files and make sure that my current Windows user have Full Control with the WindowsApps folder"

This didn't work for me.  Anymore suggestions please?

Regards

[HARSHIKA_VERMA]

Hello,

Lately, when I open Adobe XD, i get a white screen. After a few seconds the whitescreen dissapears and XD is being closed automatically.

It seems to be like this when I have Updated XD. I have removed and reinstalled the old version but that does not help either.

Does anyone know how to solve?

Thanks in advance.
