Premiere just updated to v14.6 a few days ago. Since then, I can't add tracks. When I right click and select add track from the dropdown, the app freezes up and I just watch the spinning circle forever. It's never done this before, and the only difference I can see is that it updated to 14.6 just 4 days ago. I've had zero issues with Premiere up until this.
In the meantime, I'm rolled back to version 14.5, and it doesn't have this issue.
After you install 14.6, try creating a new project from scratch and see if you face the same issue. Some projects created with older versions are having some bugs.
If the new project is fine, you can simply import your old project into the new one.
I have this exact same issue. Just updated to 14.6, and everytime I add a video track it freezes. Whether dragging and dropping, or right clicking and adding the track. Had no problem with this on 14.5. It is also doing it on newly created projects.
Same issue on 14.6, new project freezes if I try to add new video tracks.
Adobe Premiere Pro 14.6.0 (Build 51)

This did not occur last weekend, but does now after the update. As it appears to be occurring on both Mac and PC this really should have been caught by Adobe before shipping the update.
So sorry SchoollyG (any relation to Schooly D?)! I see a few others experiencing the issue but I can't reproduce it at all. How frustrating. I'll alert the team and see if we can get a bug filed here.
Your system seems to be fine. It might be the project file. If you don't mind, and if you have time, can you test with a brand new project with some of the media files you are using? Sometimes when updating a project from one version to the next, unexpected behavior might occur.
Sorry about that, Chris. I am also sorry that I cannot reproduce this issue with my (macOS) system and media. Let me know the specifics about your system and media and I will see if we can reproduce the issue on hardware and media which matches yours perhaps a bit more closely. The other test I can recommend is to start a new project to see if the same things happen. So, with system and media specs and the test I suggested, let's hear what occurred when you tried those things, OK?
I re-updated to the latest version, disabled a controller I forgot had been loaded a while ago, and yes, I seem to be able to add tracks, but only time will tell if it's really fixed.
The weird thing is that after applying the update, I can select undo, but it doesn't UNDO anything. I added the video tracks by dragging a clip up, and then tried to undo, and nothing. I tested it on several things, and I can't undo anything.
