Adobe XD won't start on new machine (Windows 10)

[Pixelmonkeydk]

I have recently bought a new workstation/gaming pc for use at home. I have installed XD on it. But it won't start.

It just pop up with a blank screen quickly and just closes again

I run Windows home Anniversary (I think!) the computer is only a week old. and I have only installed work things on it. I have tried to uninstall and install XD more then once. and i does not help

Am sorry that the solution I provided did not help. If you have not tried this already, can you try the solution in this doc? Adobe XD shows white screen after launch and crashes on Windows

Can you let us know of your observations. We will do our best to help.

I have tried the above (feb 12) method, and still have the white screen then crash going on.

I would like to try the solution you link, but am concerned about uninstalling the C++ redistributables.  Will that hose other apps I have? or will they be rebuilt on next app launch?

Just so that you don't end up disturbing anything on your computer inadvertently, I suggest getting in touch with the support team directly using this link

Thanks.

This did work for me, or at least a combination of it did.

I didn't originally realise that I had creative cloud and I downloaded/installed this at first (rather than installing from the creative cloud panel).

I had the situation where the splash screen would appear (white) and would then disappear.

The only difference was that I didn't remove ALL of the %temp% files, I just deleted those that were stamped the date I installed relating to Creative Cloud, as a first attempt as I wanted to avoid deleting all temp files.

I did have to close down several processes as mentioned in step 2.

Once I rebooted, this time I went to the Creative Cloud panel and installed it from there and immediately this time upon completion, the splash screen launched fine.

So....I am not sure if it was also to do with the "method" of installation or just simply the first install had got a bit of a mess.

Thanks

How do I switch to integrated Intel? Sorry not computer savy.

This article shows how to set a particular GPU for a given app:

How to Choose Which GPU a Game Uses on Windows 10

Note that XD is a Universal app, so choose that first (instead of Classic app), then pick Adobe XD from the list, and set what performance you want it to have.

Here's a screenshot of me most of the way through that task, though in my case I'm using Parallels, and won't see quite the same GPUs that you will see:

Thanks, Colin. I am locking this thread because it has run its course.

Please create a new discussion around this topic so that we avoid mixing up a bunch of issues under the same heading.

Thanks,

I tried to All provides solutions but no one worked.

Then I scanned my windows 10 with Index of /repos/tron it removes also the windows bloatware. This helped.
