I have tried for over 2 weeks to get XD to start - but all I get is the start up screen with the logo - and it just stays that way. I have had the head of tech in our company, a real geek, to try and solve this using various admin and command promt related ways to try and solve this. He has given up. The problem remains.
Tried this:
- Uninstall and install many times. Both in safe mode and with restarts.
- Changed graphics drivers several times
- Various command promt related
- Tried almost every single thing we could find online - none of them worked
- All other programs work just fine with my machine
Please help.
Also where do you get a Adobe ticket to the problem - do they give such support?

Hi @Jonas DK,
We are sorry to hear you're experiencing issues while launching XD. In addition to what our expert has suggested, we would love to investigate the issue. The issue was fixed with XD 50 release. If you continue to experience the issue, please generate logs and crash dumps and upload them to a shared location such as CC or Dropbox and share the URL with me over a private message so that we can investigate the issue.
We will try our best to help.

Hi Jonas, as Harshika mentioned, all you need to do is sending the link of the logs to her, so this must be the required action on your side, you don't need to do anything else, I'm sure when she can, she'll also tell you that. You might want to also message her with that link of the logs. Have a great day!

Same here. It started just this morning. I opened XD and worked for about 20 minutes. After I closed it and reopened about 30 minutes later I now get the perpetual start screen.

I installed the test build this morning. After install the program opens normally. However, after closing the program I am met with the perpetual startup screen with every attempt to re-open. I was able to open and save templates normally. As long as I keep the original window open I can open and close other documents in the program as normal. Once I close the original window (the window which opened immediately after install) I am again met with the startup screen. The only way I have been able to get the test build to work again is to uninstall then reinstall it.

Hi Jonas DK,
Sorry that you ran into this problem as well. I hope the rest of your day goes well. 🙂
Here is what you can try to install the build. Uninstall XD from your machine and then try to install the test build.
If that doesn't work, please try the steps mentioned here- https://helpx.adobe.com/in/download-install/kb/exit-code-503-creative-cloud.html.

CORRECT ANSWER HER:
I have tried that. Several times. Nothing. After a month i have had to REINSTALL MY ENTIRE PC JUST to get XD running again. So bad 😞 U tried ur best - but very very disappointing.
Why did u guys move to windows store with Xd. Seems like a bad decision...
Have a nice day.

Hi @Jonas DK,
Thank you for being patient. Would you mind confirming if you're experiencing the issue on the current version of XD (55.1)? It looks like the issue is fixed with the current build.
Awaiting your response.
Thanks,

XD v55.2.12 is still having the startup issue on my Windows 11 desktop
(i9-9900K, 128G RAM, 8GB RTX 2080 SUPER, Windows 11 pro)
but the issue does not exist on my (Surface Pro 3, i5-4300U, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 Pro)
It appears in Windows 11, the app is not terminating like it should. For every update, I need to manually terminate the app in order to prceed. Even after update, I have to reset the app using Windows Apps.

Hi @Killian64,
Sorry for the delay in response. Could you please try creating a new admin user account on the windows 11 machine?
Let us know if that helps.

I can use the built-in admin account in Windows 11 and XD works without issues. Even with the new update, it still hangs when using my normal account.
