Now that I've updated to Premiere Pro 22.6.1, when the program loads up everything looks fine. But when I actually click on a project to load up, the screen just remains blank. Please help! Here's some screen shots:

I installed 22.6.1 this morning, it gave the problem everyone is talking about here, so I rolled back to 22.5. Then left my office. I just got back an hour ago and saw sebrame's post and upgraded to 22.6.2 and the issue appears fixed. 😊👍

I can't BELIEVE this is happening to me this morning. I have a — of work to do, and this is the — I receive from Adobe for daring to do a product update. Is there ANY QA testing before they release this unusable garbage? No wonder the industry uses Final Cut. Why do I keep punishing myself with Adobe subscriptions?

Sadly, this is the 2nd time for this release. It was released a few weeks ago, then quickly removed due to issues.

Same problem here. Workspaces greyed out in 22.6.1.
Back to 22.5 yesterday. But now I have read the workaround of the blank project, Think I'm going to try that.
But Adobe... any spare time to fix this?

Best regards, Chris.

Here's my workaround

1. Make new empty project and save it.

2. Go to File, Import and select a previous project you wish to open.

3, In the import project dialogue box, select 'entire project'.

4. Project will open properly.

5 Save the current project with a new name

Project will now reopen each time without issue

Incredible that after weeks and a whole new increment Adobe have failed to fix this issue.

Hi, here's my feedback of my try and errors.

Ok after going back to 22.5 everything was finde and the workspaces back.
After finishing my last project I update to 22.6 and my steps were these:
Open PP
Open NEW blank project (dont duplicate any old ones, you will delete this blank project anyway after this is solved)
Workspaces are back.

Thx for helping out everybody!

Same Prob over here, no workspace available (greyed out), you cannonly open loose windows.

After 2 hour of fighting with a difficult and veeeeery slow reinstallation I fixed it by downgrading to 22.5
I will try the following proposed solutions:
- start with a blank new project to bring the workspaces back
(thx to Adam5C21 and to JMazzoAV for thi amazing simple idea, I will give feedback if it really worked)
Best greets to everyone. You're awesome.

It is dangerous to update against the background of such events. So far, version 22.5 is the best of version 22.

I don't want to jump into a buggy update. Or am I wrong? If so, correct it. Maybe it's not a massive problem in the black screen.

Hi All. This was happening to me too after the normal clearing of Media cache, preferences drivers etc. I fixed it by first openning a blank new project. This for some reason brings the workspaces back. Then openning regular project/productions works again.

I was having the exact same issue and it was driving me INSANE. I think it might have something to do with workspaces not loading - all of mine were greyed out, and that bar across the top was missing.

I trashed preferences, media cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, updated and rolled back graphics driver.

Eventually I just opened PP, and created a new project. That's it. Just create a new project and it forced everything to reopen.

The work around is to create a new empty project and save it and open it before you open an existing project. Old projects will open normally once the new project has been opened. BUT. You have to do this every time you open that project even after saving it.

I've done that or I'll open up a old PR Rush session and piggyback several Premier sessions off of it. Seems like once you save any of the open sessions, nothing else will open up and you have to start the process all over again.

I always delete the media cache with every update.

• Start PP from it's normal desktop icon (IE: don't open from a project file link).
• Close the Open/Home screen (and you will be in PP without a project open).
• Go into Edit/Preferences/Media Cache (Mac users adjust menu name)
• Then Press: Remove Media Cache Files: and Delete...
• Select: Delete all media cache files from the system and OK
• Close PP - It will create any needed cache files on the fly as you edit.

Same issue here. I have the current Studio driver for my card(516.94). I'm going to try reverting back to 516.93, but that doesn't really seem like it's going to help since I've been using 516.94 for a month w/o issue.

No a GFX or driver issue. Do not waste your time. Its a developer issue because they keep messing with layouts and other irrelevant stuff. They have messed it up yet again.
