Does it crash on a brand-new project?

Make sure your graphics card is updated to the most current studio version.

First of all, you have a very powerful rig. It's unfortunate that you're experiencing crashes with Adobe Premiere Pro. Let's go through a comprehensive troubleshooting process to help resolve these issues. Additionally, you should delete all Premiere Pro preferences to ensure a fresh start.

Delete Premiere Pro Preferences:

• Before launching Premiere Pro, navigate to the Premiere Pro preferences folder and delete it to reset the settings.
• On Windows, you can find it here: C:\Users\[Your Username]\Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro
• Backup your Auto-Save projects if needed
• Delete the folder named after the version you are using (e.g., 24.0 for Premiere Pro 2024).
• Alternatively, you can reset preferences by holding Alt (Windows) while launching Premiere Pro until you see the splash screen.

• Follow the instructions to uninstall Creative Cloud and all Adobe applications.
2. Use Nvidia Cleanup Tool Again:

• Restart your computer after using the tool.
3. Reinstall Adobe Creative Cloud and Premiere Pro:
• Once your system is clean, reinstall Adobe Creative Cloud from the Adobe website.

Thanks. I just do all this and keeps crashing and i realize that also media encoder crashes too but only occurred with 4k videos but all my videos are in 4k, I do realize that adobe support is down too.

mmm compatibility issues I guess can you tell me what codec you're using? also try the following please:

Test with a Different Project:

• Create a new project in Premiere Pro and import a 4K video file. Check if the issue persists with a fresh project.
• If the new project works fine, the issue might be with the original project file.

Transcoding 4K Footage:

• As a workaround, try transcoding your 4K videos to a different codec using Adobe Media Encoder or another transcoding tool (e.g., HandBrake) before importing them into Premiere Pro. This can sometimes resolve compatibility issues.

The easiest way to fix this is to downgrade Premiere Pro to version 24.3.0.

I had the same issues and despite trying to find a solution the crashes never stopped.

[T - Sal]

Have you tried to downgrade Premiere Pro to version 24.3.0 asAverdahl previously?

Hello Averdahl 

I just want to know if your solution worked with D`Loft37982001l1e9 🙂

My rig is anot as powerfull as yours (Nvidia 4070 super and "only" 96 GB Ram) but I'm getting also so frustrated with latest versions. Constant crashings, Some require me to use powershell just to close premiere and start over. I've tried everything suggested by everyone, updating to latest studio driver, checking everything is in order. Nothing helps, especially not adobe support.

Best workaround seems to be switching to resolve or god forbid avid.

I'm using Resolve Lately, it's faster than Premiere in all ways possible, even in editing. The only reason I was using  premiere  was to use Dynamic Link, but it's also buggy sometimes, so wathever
