Suddenly starts lagging, can't do anything on premiere anymore

[defaultxiet0q3ie339]

Premiere pro starts lagging all of a sudden while editing and I have to restart program, sometimes that doesn't even help. It always starts lagging when I drag cerain clips, mostly audio clips, into the sequence. The clip is empty and "the blue line" doesn't show up where i want it, it freezes. Or when I make an audio clip longer by draging it, this also makes the program freeze and lag. I'm considering changing to another editing program because I can't find help anywhere.

Hi there, can you share some more info on your system so we can help? Could you share your (OS, RAM, CPU, GPU) details?

Delete the Media Cache and Media Cache files:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the preferences:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:
Reset a workspace
Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.
1. Do one of the following:
• Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.
from here:

If that doesn't work, try Preferences > Audio Hardware and set Input to None.

If that doesn’t work, try updating or rolling back your graphics driver directly from the video card manufacturer’s site. If NVIDIA, do a clean installation of the latest Studio Driver (NOT the Game Driver)

If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.
