Correct answer mihai.udvuleanu

A crash dump file is not generated in C:\Users\<your_user>\AppData\Local\CrashDumps.


This is because there is a limit of maximum 10 dump files in OS. Could you delete some files from that folder (C:\Users\<your_user>\AppData\Local\CrashDumps) and try again to launch XD?

Activating dumps will not solve the problem with XD not starting, but most likely the dump file will allow us to find out why it happens.

Thanks,

Mihai

Do you see anything on the screen when you launch XD? E.g. like an empty application frame that disappears after a few seconds?

Does XD exist in Windows applications list? (click Windows button and search for Adobe Experience Design CC)

What happens if you launch it directly from here?

Thanks,

Mihai
