22.0.1: Crash Report Service Stopped Working

[Guest]

Hi,

I can be very short about this one.

I updated last week to the, let's call it, bug-fixing version of 22.0.1.

Now every time I start Illustrator, I get the below error.

I tried:

- Clearing all preferences

I'm working on:
- Windows 10, Precision 5520, Quadro M1200

i just did a Windows 10 update, restarted, and now the crash reporter message has stopped appearing. hopefully that will be that.

[supervova]

In my case issue start appearing after Windows 10 cumulative update kb4051033.

And what update you were installed?

[Doug A Roberts]

Same problem with illustrator.

There's also lag when using the brush tool. All of the tools looks fine other than the brush tool.

Never had this lag yesterday and I'm so pissed right now cause I can't use my brush!

I have a client waiting for my work.

Same dialog started popping up this morning...no apparent reason.

This also just started on my system. Win 7 Pro.

Last night I had no problems. Now, Saturday morning, no matter which Adobe program I open I get this error. I did not get it back in November like some of the other posters and the OP.

So I believe it is on Adobe's end and nothing to do with my system.

Same problem here with Win 7.

Photoshop CC 19.0, Lightroom CC 7.0.1 (latest downloaded updates).

[Y.J.Malmsteen]

Same error message here (but my main apps are working):

(Win 8.1 - Cc & Ps & Lr has Latest updates)

[Acca]

I have exactly the same issue. And I have have it with every Adobe app I have (Illustrator, Bridge, Photoshop).

Hi Guys I found the solution for this problem.

First of all go to properties of CRWindowsClientService which is located in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 and give the privilege level to run the program as an administrator.

This works as well as for Bridge, InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and all other Adobe Creative Cloud programs.

Try this method out, It perfectly worked for mine.

[albertj358]

Granting admin rights to CRWindowsClientService.exe does not fix the problem here, both Lightroom and Photoshop continue to have the error.

[Acca]

Thank you hirua..., that worked for me too. Wonderful!

[Acca]

I couldn't find CRWindowsClientService.exe for Adobe Illustrator. Any reason for that?

[Hiru-Aiyya]

Illustrator's location is a bit awkward.

If you are using 64bit locate the .exe in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2018\Support Files\Contents\Windows.

It will work even if you use 32bit.

[Bob Dunkley]

This worked for me, but I found that I had to do this to every instance of CRWindowsClientService, ie Lightroom and Photoshop.

I changed every CRWindowsClientServices.exe file to Run as Admin and still have the problem. There is one of them in each Adobe program folder I have except Acrobat DC Pro.

I wonder what would happen if I just deleted them.

As I posted above I did not have this problem until this morning. Last night everything worked without this error coming up. Woke up this morning and turn my PC on and started LR and got this error. No changes made, no updates do to either the OS or the Adobe apps.

So that leads me to think it is on Adobe's end. Some server that service/program/app is trying to connect to is down which is causing that program to crash.

[Just Shoot Me]

Well I deleted one from Bridge and Bridge 2018 started normally. Then I tried LR C CC V7.01 and LR started without that error.

So I created a folder in the ROOT of my D drive, calling it "Deleted from Adobe Apps". Then Subfolders for all of the Adobe programs, PS, P Pro, Bridge, LR and Medea Encoder and move all those CRWindowsClientServices.exe files into their respective subfolders and No more errors.

[albertj358]

This works for me as well. I already relocate certain plugins to a save folder in both Photoshop and Lightroom, and just dragged the offending CRWindowsClientService.exe file into each.

Thank you hirua26147080 . I applaud your helpful input on this.

This solution worked for me. I wish adobe would take ownership of this and create a fix. I mean if Im paying for this , I expect it to work right.

[Hiru-Aiyya]

Thats true...

[Eggy21]

That worked for me anyway, so thanks @Hiru Aiyya!
