New update makes slow

[Jerry23300790jgby]

The latest update of Premiere Pro is really disappointing. Rendering, even with minimal effects, takes forever, and exporting that used to take me just 5 minutes now drags on for over an hour. I have 64GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD, so I expected better performance. This is frustrating!  ALways something new on update but with something bad, now client is saying me why it takes you so much time to make small changes which is not my f problem, sometime it's a crap

@adobe plz fix this i don't even understand for what we are even paying for monthly when editing program out there nowadays are literally becoming better, people who says shift to another program is not easy for someone who has regular work, this makes sometimes life harder

With all due respect, don't blame Adobe for your decision to update the program mid-project. You can expect certain bugs or issues whenever a new version drops, so finish your project before updating.

Or keep the old version installed and then start testing in a duplicate project converted to the new version.

Looking at your post, you are familiar with new issues arising whenever a new PPro version drops, so why didn't you just hold off on it? I'm not trying to be a dick here, and I also hate when the program doesn't run like I'd want it to. But a lesson for next time: don't instantly update unless you're having major issues that are confirmed to be fixed in the new version.

On a side note, are you 100% nothing changed on your end? Updates/different hardware etc.

Hey appreciate it, honestly even before update it was crashing and cloud it forces to update so i did update it didn't knew it would cause this much problem, so far from my side everything is fine drive, windows update everything runs nicely it's only this program, even i checked with older project it's the same issue, I heard that many other also have same issue, program freeze, takes so much time to render, tell me brother since how long this crashes and bug exist from, not tryna be mean but they always come with some new bugs

You can choose to disable auto update of CC apps.

What's your total hardware? CPU/RAM/GPU and GPU driver? How many drives are you using, and are they internal or external, SSD or spinning disc?

As hardware keeps geting more powerful, software is rewritten to use that new capability. And over time, all computers become outdated and unable to quickly perform with newer software code.

Pr 25.x really needs at least 8 fully functional cores, not the two-level cores some CPUs now have, where only half the cores are fully functional. More is better, 10-12 or more is pretty solid.

I wouldn't recommend less than 32GB of RAM for a desktop. I'm running 128GB on a 2-year old 24 core machine.

SSD drives for OS/cache are pretty much required now. And actually, for projects/media files too.

Hi Neil, thanks appreciate it, I have 64gb ram and 1TB SSD. and 8 cores and 16 threads. This means it has 8 functional cores that can handle simultaneous tasks. After effects works perfectly it's only priemere pro that isn't working properly i means it's completely slow when i put any effects on the video before there was no issue at all, it happened only after update.

can't even work properly and no point of even scolding to adobe cause there won't be fixing last time i dealed with force shortcut key and it took then 2 months to fix with update now this 😞

Ton of ALs there, what's going on in them? And what specific CPU? The media and codec? All that is data that is helpful to see where problems might be coming from. Or as warnings.

[Jerry23300790jgby]

I think it's a less, i used to edit with heavy adjustment layer before that and there was never an issue, i don't think my laptop has any fault and i won't change anything just for priemere pro, I used ALs a lot because it's a different effects and workflow for my color some are for comos that i have been using for past 2 ,3 years, These workflows are from my montors when i took mentorship with them who are already working on big industry, this is pretty much simple timeline, I have done heavy edits too in big projects there was never and issue. Only it happened after 2025 priemere pro update. It cannot even handle small effects and I did resest too but it is still same but AE is working fine even with heavy edits, it's just priemere pro

None of that is actually of any use to troubleshoot. Except that it's a laptop.

All the pro video post apps ... and other complex, massive programs ... get more demanding of computer hardware over time. Because over time, the capabilities of newer computers is always going up. So the apps get more resource needy ... because the majority of the user base wants the more capable app.

But lower capable machines will suddenly start to struggle. And if you actually gave data on your machine, "we" could figure out if something is wrong in the way it's using the app, or ... that your machine is getting less capable of handling the new version.

If so, then there's ways to modify your working processes to keep it usable longer also.

Hi Neil thanks yes i definetly need help on this because it's frustating to work like this in program

Hp Omen

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 

DDR6 
Installed RAM 64gb
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Harddrive - 1TB SSD

Ditto.

I held off on updating until between projects yesterday.

I am experiencing this as well with 24.6.3, what was expected in the episodic I complete every month -  usually takes < 10mins - is now taking over an hour to render (export)

Side note, I don't trust and am scared to use multicam. Yet I do often, and I think this is the cause of issues often. Yet that's another podcast.

Windows 11 Pro - 22631

Intel i9-10920x on X299 Deluxe (I know, time to upgrade)

64GB Ram

GPU - Nvidia Quadro A5000 (latest driver for studio, they come out often)

2 internal NVMe media drives, separate SSD drives for cache and render.

Update, today I deleted all cache files and upgraded GPU driver and was surpirsed by how fast this same sequence exported.
