Bridge 13.01 - Bridge crashes every time I exit full screen mode

[GabiCa2112]

I use bridge a lot for photo editing with Camera Raw.

I use the space bar a lot for entering the full screen preview when editing and lately Bridge crashes EVERY time I exit the full screen preview. I've used this so much that at this point I do it without thinking and it keeps crashing and it's very annoying for my workflow.  I've installed version 12.0.3 again and, luckily, works perfectly.

Just wondering if anyone is having this same issue with Bridge 13.01? 

I run Windows 11 Home 22H and I've NEVER had any issue with Bridge or any of the Adobe programs before.

Yes, I have exactly the same problem. When I watch pictures in full screen and after exit Bridge crashes. And how to bring back this error report windows that I can send reports manually again. I can't find solution.

Ifigured out what causing Bridge crashing. No crashing, if in the setting to activate Software rendering. So it's not possible to use hardware rendering. Is it Bridge or Nvidia bug?

[GabiCa2112]

This worked!

My Nvidia drivers did update recently, wonder if it's directly connected with this issue? My Card is a GTX 1660 Ti. (Jealous of your RTX 3060!)

Thank you so much!

I am using Windows 11 22H2 and Nvidia RTX 3060 graphic card all with latest drivers.

I get the exact same error.

However enabling "Software rendering" solves it, but *ONLY* in version 13.0 (Which is unusable due to other bugs).
Both Version 13.01 & 13.02 crash, even if "Software Rendering" is enabled.

Version 12.0.4 works with "Software Rendering" ON or OFF.

Yes, this "software rendering" option unfortunately is not the solution. For a moment it worked, but not anymore.

Strangely after reinstalling the NVIDIA drivers using "Perform Clean Install", Bridge 13.02 worked on the first launch without error, but after quiting & starting Bridge again it began crashing the same.

Some acknowledgement of this bug from Adobe would be appreciated.

I got today letter from Bridge team and they told:

We suspect that the recent NVIDIA driver update is causing this crash.

(Driver version : 31.0.15.2802 (528.02) , Release date : 5 Jan 2023)

To further investigate the issue, we need your help. Please confirm if the issue is resolved by either of the below steps:

1. Downgrade the NVIDIA graphic card driver.
1. Download it from NVIDIA official site

1. Switch to “Software rendering” in Bridge preferences by following the below steps.
1. Navigate to Edit-> Preferences-> Advanced
2. Enable checkbox “Use Software Rendering”
3. Restart Bridge
4. Check if the crash is resolved while previewing files.

I downgraded NVIDIA driver to 527.56 and now Bridge working perfectly.  No crashing anymore

Thanks, got the same message.

All the best!

Nvidia has acknowledged this issue caused by driver version 528.02.

There is yet another update, version 528.24 (release Jan 19 2023) which I installed and it seems to have cured the problem.

Here are the reported bug fixes with this new driver version:

[Marmes]

Yes this is for Nvidia RTX/Quadro, but no update for GeForce cards yet.

[Kapture benoit]

May I ask how you got acces to that new update Nvidia 528.24, because it's not on Nvidia driver update website..

[Marmes]

You must have NVIDIA RTX/QUADRO graphic card, then you can download this update.

[Sridhar5C7E]

No the even the new driver update 528.24 doesn't make any improvement, Bridge opens smoothly, if i click any to view, it crashes and close, even if its idle it closes in few moments.

[AH_Photography]

My Bridge 13.02 continues to crash even with the latest v528.24 drivers.
However the crash isn't instant, but occurs after going through a lot of fullscreen previews.

Go to a folder -> select an image -> fullscreen -> hold right arrow or just next image really fast, and/or open close fullscreen a lot and browser a folder of images.
Eventually it crashes.

**I do not have this crashes with NVIDIA driver v527.56**
