Bridge 2023 won't open

Bridge is now saying it encountered an error and needs to close. I submit the report, and bye bye Bridge. So I try again, and it's the same deal. So I click t oalways submit the report, now Bridge just briefly appeard in my task manager and goes away. 

 

First they got rid of side mouse button back/forward functionality and slowed down keystroke filename search so it doesn't even work like Windows, now the thing won't even open. 

 

Can someone tell me when there will be an update that remedies this or what I can do to have it open? I restarted the computer multiple times.

Ctrl+Alt+Shift does nothing. All other steps in that page are not possible as I cannot open the program.

You have to do the Ctrl-Alt-Shift as Bridge launches, hold it until the reset window comes up.

Did not work. Windows requests Bridge permissions to "make changes to this device", I say yes, then "Bridge encountered an error and needs to close".

A mi también me va super mal desde la ultima actualización!!!

Hace cosas super extrañas....

Es desesperante que cada vez que adobe hace una actualización , haya errores , y que haya tenga que sacar una nueva actualización a los 4 dias para solucionarlos....

Y si lo tienes como erramienta de trabajo , la mala ostia que haces es impresionante!!  

Pobre teclado la de golpes que lleva hoy!!!! por culpa de adobe!!!

In another thread of someone having similar issues, it turned out that the user's computer was too old to run Bridge 2023. One would assume that Bridge would check for this before installing, and perhaps it might not be sufficiently checked. 

 

Can you please let us know the age of the computer you are having issues with? What model and approximately when was it purchased?

Hi, @Evan1151 well good. That concern can be eliminated. 

 

I'll let Lumigraphics continue here as I do not know Windows issues as well as he does.

No idea, you'd need to use something like Process Monitor to see what Bridge is trying to do. I'm a Mac guy like Gary, I have some Windows experience but not enough to troubleshoot remotely. Your other option is to have Adobe Support take a look remotely.

Update: The problem was solved by installing Bridge 12.0.3 instead of 13. The best solution is to ignore the update notification and refrain from updating Bridge. 

 

Also, all my quality-of-life features came back, like side mouse back and forward buttons and keystroke file name search.

 

Thanks guys!

Hi, you can also try to install the latest patch release #13.0.1.583. Please install and confirm if that fixes some of the issues.
You can refer to the issues fixed in the patch at the following link https://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/fixed-issues.html

Tried and failed. Still won't open. 

 

I do not have this problem on my desktop, but I do on my laptop. 

 

Worth noting is that it wasn't always like this. It used to just be the forward and backwards side mouse buttons and no separate/second Bridge window to drag and drop between folders anymore that just was disappointing. Now after the patch it still won't open

You can try the CC Cleaner tool to remove everything and then reinstall. Its a PITA but can fix major problems. You can also try a new user account to see if its something in your account (likely) or a system issue.
