Premier Elements 7 will not start on Windows 7

Unable to get Premier elements 7 to start. Crashes as soon as it is told to either create a new project or to open an existing project.
Will Premier 7 run on Windows 7?
Software: Premier 7, just reinstalled, with patches.
machine: HP with Intel core 2 quad cpu @ 2.66Ghz with 6GB memory, disks are 750Gb and 1Tb, No Raid. Video is Nvidia GeForce 9500GS
OS is 64 bit Windows home premium with all service packs and patches applied. Not running Aero.
Ran fine previously when this same hardware was running Vista

PRE7 runs fine on W7-64 without needing to set compatibility or rights.
Work through these basics to see if it cures your problems.
Install all Windows Updates.
Install latest version of Apple QuickTime (v7.6.9 at time of writing). Even if you don't use QuickTime, PRE relies heavily on it.
Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites.
Install PRE9 v9.0.1 update.
Delete BadDrivers.txt (in Windows 7 this is likely at C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Premiere Elements\9.0\BadDrivers.txt)
Run Disk Cleanup.
Run Defragmenter.
Reboot your PC.
Temporarily disable any anti-virus realtime scanning.

Neale

    Hej!
    Organiziser in Photoshop Elements 9 will not start in Windows 8.1. Inkompartibelt programs.
    What to do?
    /yoel

    Ok, I had many problems with the installation, but after three attempts I've got it working. This might work with a previously failed installation - but there are other guides in the forum to get this position -thanks also to the many threads on the this - which pointed me in the right direction
    Previously I'd had issues with Error 1935, (on Shared Technologies), Blue screens due to clbudf.sys from Cyberlink Instant burn which blue screened (thread abort exception) this install as also iTunes. (I haven't installed this now...
    My scenario. Win 7 (clean) -> Win 8 -> Win 8.1
    After setting up the setting up the system.
    I ensured the following : (although begrudingly) so I could do a system restore if needed.
    -I disabled Anitvirus & Firewall
    -enabled Volume Shadow Copy Service
    I then ensured I had downloaded Adobe Application Manager 8.0 (read this may help) - I installed - but I did not run it as I believe it updates to Adobe CC Manager( from previous attempts)
    i also downloaded and installed the 32 bit versions of :
    C++2008 redistributable (32 bit)
    C++2008 SP1 redistributable (32 bit)
    I installed Premiere Elements (64 bit) - note I had previously installed Sony Vegas 10 Platinum, which downloaded and installed NET 3.5/Net 2.0 adding to windows features, which many have helped - not sure.
    I installed Photoshop Elements (32 bit)
    I started both apps and updated them to 12.1.
    Happy ... finally - hope this helps others - or at least helps adobe improve their installer, diagnose the issue for others.

  • Elements 5 will not start from the windows old file after upgrading from vista to win 7

    Elements 5 will not start from windows.old after upgrading from vista to win 7

    Ideally there should not be any impact of OS change, but officially PSE5 is not supported on Win7.
    What exactly happens ? Can you see the processes running in Task-manager?

  • Adobe premier elements 12 will not open.

    Hi
    My Adobe Premier Elements 12 will not open.
    It did open about 12 hours ago when I was busy working on video edits. Then I closed it, went to sleep and got up in the morning to carry on editing - bt it wont open anymore. There are no error messages coming up.
    I double clicked on the icon on my desks top, as well as tried oeping it from the start menu - same responce - nothing happens.
    what can the problem be ?
    If I uninstall and then reinstall - will this affect any of my videos that I am editing but have not rendered or saved yet ?
    thanks - I need help urgently.
    LorenzoChetty

    Lorenzochetty,
    Welcome to the forum.
    As one of the main reasons for PrE to not launch is the video driver (more on that in a moment), can you provide us with some details, please?
    What OS version are you running PrE 12 on?
    What is the make and model of your video card/chip (GPU)?
    What is the installed version of the video driver?
    Is that the latest from the nVidia, or AMD/ATI Web site?
    Also, what anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-anything software are you running?
    If you are on Windows, and have Windows updates set to Automatic (the default), then a simple OS Update can render the video driver obsolete.
    Good luck, and let us know more please.

  • Premier elements 10 will not install!!

    Premier elements 10 will not install on my Mac.  Installing from disk. I get a bunch of words starting with Warning:DW031:  To me it is all just junk and unhelpful.  I followed the contact customer support link and it leads me to the most useless web site I have ever encountered.  Why is this so frustrating?  How do I get past this?  It has already cost me hours of frustration.  I have a screen shot of the installation status error page but nowhere to send it.  BTW, photoshop elements loaded just fine on this computer.  HELP!!

    Googling DW031 shows many similar and/or helpful items. This one includes a link to Adobe's Official Response. See if that solves it for you.

  • Photoshop elements 13 will not start editor

    photoshop elements 13 will not start editor. Application lets me open the organizer, but the editor never opens. No error is presented, application just closes. Attempted compatibility settings, still no luck. Any suggestions?

    mine won't even let me begin. I click on a picture and it immediately shuts down.... This is my first time to use it and I feel like a refund is in order. Why on earth won't it even let me start on a picture

  • I just "upgraded"????? to Lightroom CC, now it will not start on Windows 7.  can someone help me?

    I had Lightroom 5 and the creative cloud photographer bundle.  upgraded (some joke) to Lightroom CC and no lightroom will not start on Windows 7.  just dead in the water. any help?

    The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
    Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
    This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

  • Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install

    Premier elements 12 will not run after re-install - it is legal and registered with adobe under my ID. WTF! The reason I re-installed it was because it could not find the internet - which is working. And premier 12 was working for a while then quit - that is why as a last ditch effort - i re-installed it. Any ideas?

  • Premiere elements 12 will not start.

    Premiere elements is installed and registered .  It will not start from the shortcut or from the exe file name.
    Any ideas why not?

    What error message do you see?
    What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
    What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
    Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
    -If Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
    -you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

  • Firefox version 3.5.16 will not start under Windows Vista and Windows 7 32bit

    I have a Windows Vista computer that will not start any newer version of Firefox than 3.5.16. The process will run (as seen in the Task Manager) but do nothing.
    I have since updated Windows to version 7 and the problem persists.
    I have tried uninstalling Firefox and all Addons (flash-player, pdf-reader) and deleting all files (even user-specific ones).
    Firefox can't be started in Profilemanger or safe-mode either.
    Is there anything short of reinstalling windows I can try?

    Solved it!
    It was a dodgy version of Firebug (1.6.2) running, which would kill the disable/update process. It was killing something on the first run that would corrupt my Firefox.
    How I fixed it:
    * Download the latest Firefox
    * Install Firefox 4 (as Standard) in-place upgrade
    * Before finishing, un-tick the "Run Firefox Now" button
    * Hit Finish
    * Find Firefox in the Start Menu and hold Shift and click the executable (safe mode)
    * Leave everything disabled
    * You should now have a working Firefox!
    Remove/update your add-ons as needed. I only had to upgrade Firebug in safe mode to get it working.
    Odd how the check for updates completely broke this Firefox, wonder what was so bad about Firebug.
    Hope this helps at least one other person! The "Run in Safe Mode" option is so hard to discover now when your browser is broken!

  • Photoshop Elements 12 will not start

    When I start elements 12 I receive the error message "Photoshop elements cannot start or continue because of missing file(s) Please reinstall" I have reinstalled the program twice and still get the same error. I have been using the program for a month with no problem and evrything else on my computer is working just fine. Thanks for any suggestions

    Hi,
    I meant create a new user account on your laptop. There are some settings that are stored on a per user basis so creating a new user may clear a setting.
    However, that may not help in your case - I have been trying to help someone else and got your two problems mixed up.
    The only reason that I had the editor fail before was resolved by running the disk cleanup and check tools.
    As you have returned the product, you could try installing the trial version. If you get it to work, then you may be able to buy a boxed version from Amazon or similar. I'm not sure where you are but the boxed version can often be on special offer from the big stores at a cheaper price.

  • System will not start login Window

    I have a 10.4.5 workstation that will not start the login window.
    It comes up very quickly with the box/progress bar that shows the starting services. Then it goes to the blue screen with the spinning wheel. It will the get a beachball that goes to a useable mouse, but there is only lots of blue real estate. Login window never comes up.
    I have done the following in the order listed:
    disk utility
    fsck
    repaired permissions
    renamed com.apple.loginwindow.plist
    replaced the netinfo DB
    each reboot only produces the same screen with a cursor and nothing else.

    I had a similar looking problem on not one but two laptops after upgrading to 10.4.7 (which incorporates several Security Updates) from various lower Tiger versions. In my case, booting to single user mode showed loginwindow continually falling over & being restarted.
    They wouldn't boot from CD or external firewire drives.
    I eventually got them back up by booting in firewire target mode & applying the 10.4.7 Combo updater.

  • Premier elements 13 will not install, thinks I run Vista when I actually have Windows 7

    Help?

    The last window where you have to click the install button, bottom right, was greyed out. An error message said the install wouldn't run as it said I was running Vista.
    I'm using Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
    However, I did a restart on my laptop and clicked set up. Everything was fine. Premier Elements installed without a hitch. By this time it was nearly midnight and I forgot to go back in here and say so.
    Thanks, Jeff.

  • Premiere Elements 12 will not start a new project

    I loaded Premiere Elements 12 on my...
    64bit HP Laptop Dv7
    Intel core i7
    Windows 7
    Radeon Graphics (HD 6770m)
    updated Quicktime
    updated display drivers as requested when first installed.
    reloaded PE 12
    Started PE12 but when i click Video Editor and then select New Project the button shows the purple and black lines for about a minute and then stops and nothing happens
    I have almost given up.  I have been trying to load this program on my pc for 5 days.  Nothing but problems.  I have asked pc gurus at work and no one has a clue what could be wrong.
    Why will Adobe Premiere Elements 12 not start on my laptop?
    by the way there is no BadDrivers.txt file to delete that i can find...
    Does anyone have a clue as to why the application would not start?

    Rotary
    It is late where I am so I will give you some things to work on.
    Premiere Elements does not fare well with 2 video cards/graphics cards. Have you disabled the Intel and observed the consequences?
    Determine if the problem is there with and without the antivirus disabled.
    BadDrivers.txt file
    Local Disk C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    in the Premiere Elements Folder will be one file and some folders. You do not want the folders or what is in them. You want that file which is the BadDrivers.txt file. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path shown. Be aware that after you open the program again after the file deletion, the program will generate a new BadDrivers.txt file but by that time the problem should be gone (hopefully).
    I would probably be going after the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file -
    Local Disk C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    12.0
    and in the 12.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists.
    Better yet....check out the information in the following blog posts
