Adobe Bridge CC keeps stalling

Question

Adobe bridge keeps crashing. Whenever I open bridge, it asks me to purge my cache, which I do. After viewing my folders for a while, and it doesn't matter which hard or folder I view ( I use multiple hard drives depending on the project and client), eventually it will crash, or rather stall and not respond, even after several minutes. Neither does restarting my computer.
In general, I have found CC aps to be pretty buggy-does anyone else have this problem? I did make a call to tech support a month ago, but it really didn't solve the issue, and right now, Bridge is unuseable.
I'm going to trash my preferences and reset my pram-hope this will help, but any insights would be helpful. I have about 16 gigs of ram, and CS6 and 5 worked fine.
All best–

Since you mention PRAM I reckon you are on a Mac?
Try this first, quit Bridge
In user library (by default hidden per OSX 10.7 use menu Go with option key to reveal):
user library/ preferences: inhere find and delete the Bridge6.plist file
user library/ caches/ Adobe/ Bridge CC : inhere find and delete both Cache folder and plug in
(all deleted items will refresh itself with new and empty ones after restarting Bridge)
Restart Bridge holding down option key and choose reset prefs (you need to set your custom changes in prefs again because they are set to factory default).
Then try again.
