Simple question I guess - but does Premier Pro (and other Adobe products)  "officially" work with  Windows 11?

This topic has been closed for replies.

According to Adobe website, Premiere Pro is now compatible with Windows 11:

 

Premiere Pro versions 22.0 and later are compatible with Windows 11 operating systems. For systems with NVIDIA GPUs, Windows 11 requires NVIDIA driver version 472.12 or later.

Hi Community,

This post is becoming a catch-all for Windows 11 general issues. My advice is to create a new post if you are having problems. Locking.

 

Thanks,

Kevin

Premier Pro does not work, Photoshop did not work properly either. I text with Microsoft and got a link to roll back to Win 10.

Everything works. Adobe gave a recommendation after testing and compatibility. I've been enjoying it for six months now. No problem.

I've upgraded and have not had any problems so far. All working well.

Not a fan. My PC was only a few months old so I figured I'd do it right away, to get it onto Win11 early on.  I've heard about memory resources not allocating when you close out of other programs, and it seems to be true. Kinda like where you're listening to music online & have a browser open, while editing, if it slows up, and you close out of the music & browser tabs, it doesn't open up the RAM back to Premiere, so you might as well reboot.

 

Overall, I like it. It's very similar to Win10, (so it's basically Windows 10.5 really, not a huge revamp) but overall I'd say pass on it. Windows 10 was pretty good.

All the benchmarks I have seen show 11 running the same speed or slower doing tasks like encoding etc on Intel cpus. The way Microsoft is advertising 11 as a multi media star and requiring a recent, fast cpu, I would have expected a speed boost. Just the opposite. If there performance isn’t any faster, I see no reason to upgrade to 11.

Yeah I'm in a similar position. Newer computer to edit 4k. That said, it seemed to run better on 10 from what I recall. Still, I'm guessing in 2-3 years most people will be on 11 so it might be better we upgraded early. We'll see, it's not awful (8, ME), but it doesn't seem it was worth upgrading. Oh well

Since I isntalled widnows 11, my PC slowed down significantly when trying to open folders and files. After spending time with MS helpline I had to uninstall Adobe etc and reset my PC. This took my hours and lost me significant income. 

 

After resetting my PC everything worked fine until I reinstalled Adode Distiller. 

 

What a nighmare. Sadly I will now have to cancel my subscritpion with Adobe.

It seems like it may be a bit of hit and miss with it.

Adobe say it's now officially supported with some possible glitches. I'm using it now delivering training this week in Premiere Pro (on Win 11) and it seems to be working fine.

I have finished a lot of projects on Win 11 for a long time. Works better than in Win 10. My personal opinion.

Nothing has changed yet. Premiere still has playback problems with video, which latches and plays back with unstable time. The clips export fine, but critical editing in its current state is impossible. If Adobe cannot address this, I may just go to Da Vinci next year and save the money. My system is a i5 10th gen with an RTX 550 GPU, all I'm trying to do is SD most of the time. Premiere should be able to do that resolution.

Are you on a Mac? Are your SD video files DV?

No - I installed Win 11 and are now unable to re-install my registerd copy of Premier. I'm not prepared to fork out more cash for the "latest version" so decided to install DaVinci 17 free version.

Yes, but Premiere and Rush are crashing continuously on my i7 core, Intel Iris Xe.

Not really. I'm still on Windows 10 and it doesn't install Win11 unless I'll click Install button in Updates.
