I have a project that I’ve tried to purify. reimported into new project, even exported to XML and imported that into new project, still highly unstable and crashy. thankfully delivered and done for over a year now, so I don’t have to deal with it.
media is fine. thats generally easy to find because you crash playing or doing things with that one clip, or clips from a particular folder.
nVidia driver is more interesting. I do installs often enough through regular updates though that its probably low on my list but a good / fast / easy one to do.
PP prefs. ugh. perhaps cloud prefs are the source of re-occuring problems. maybe I’ll nuke everything prefs and see if that matters.
App reinstall I’ve done, never made a difference for me.
if anything, I’ve almost come to suspect nVidia related things and that AMD is more stable. my laptop seems to be more stable than my tower with Titan X.
what I will say is I’ve spent days trying some other things like trashing all the house keeping files / caches, new projects, copy and paste into new TL’s, pretty much to no avail. I think old projects have some weird bits to them that newer vers don’t like and don’t have code to detect the problems and fix. what we need is a project purifier that filters a project for questionable things and fixes them. I realize that might mean your project gets changed, but I’d rather have warning of items that changed and need to be fixed than I can’t get work done. well I have, export to XML and go to FCP X or resolve to finish it.

Opening up previous projects for updates isn’t pretty as those are super easy to crash with. doing simple stuff like adding an transition crashes.I’ve heard similar tales from PC users. Some people seem to have stable installs, some don’t. There doesn’t seem to be commonality to it. Even new clean projects can be crashers, so I gave up and moved on. sad but when you just need to get things done rather then send crash logs off… you do what you need to do.
