GIMP :: 2.8 Crashes On Startup In Windows 8
Mar 5, 2013
I have a new (cheap) Lenovo Notebook that came preconfigured with Windows 8.
With some effort, I have configured it to have an administrator account and a normal user account.
Today I downloaded the latest GIMP and installed it on the administrator account. The program starts fine (albeit painfully slowly) and seems to run normally on the administrator account. However, in the normal user account, Gimp gets part way through loading and crashes as shown in this image:
what the error message: "The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an usual way" might mean?

It's probably something to do with the brushes 'cause when the folder (for the brushes) was still empty; Gimp started without any problems. And now, when the brushes are there, Gimp keeps on crashing. I'm 100% sure that this never happened to me when I was using the 2.6 version. URL....

I installed Gimp 2.8 for Windows tonight on an XP SP3 system and it hangs for more than 30min when starting (never completes initializing). Gimp 2.8 takes 50% CPU and 184Mb RAM and sits "Gathering Data" with no further progress. I end up killing the process.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled into a fresh directory with no change. I gave up and tried to reinstall 2.6 and get almost the same issue except RAM usage goes up to 550Mb and it sits at the startup screen.

I'm quite a newbie at image editing, I only use The Gimp to resize pictures and to do similar "simple" tasks. For a few times now, and more systematically since the last update, The Gimp crashes while opening high-res images (at least 1000x1000 px).
ex. [URL] ......
Although I can randomly succeed in opening this kind of files, I always have to retry several times.
I'm using it in Windows 7 Pro SP1, installed the latest version for Windows 2.8.4 (in French).
Note: I found a rather similar thread here: [URL] ..... but the guy uses The Gimp on Mac OS X while I have Win7.

After Adobe Creative Cloud installed Photoshop CC via the root account, see:
[URL]
The Adobe Photoshop CC 14.1.1 (14.1.1.415) crashes immediately on startup under OS X 10.8.5 unless I am running logged into the root account. This happens when I try to run Adobe Creative Cloud.app as a standard user or as a user with admin privileges.
In other words, the only way I am able to run the Adobe Photoshop CC application is if I take the dangerious option of enablign the root account, logging into it and then directly running the application.
how I can run Adobe Photoshop CC without having to both enable and login to the root account.

When I launch PS CS6, I see the splash screen, and then the workspace, and then the program immediately crashes. I have verified that this is happening with all user accounts. OS is 10.7.5, PS version is 13.0.4. All of the other programs in the Production suite launch without a problem. Here is the crash report:

I've been using VSX4 for about 4 weeks without any problems, aside from the very occasionaly crash. The last time I used it was three days ago.
I've tried to use it today to find it crashes at startup every time. I have restarted my PC several times to no avail. As far as I can recall, I have not installed anything in the last three days, or updated drivers.
I have uninstalled and then reinstalled. Again, to no avail.
VSX4 creates a dump file each time, which I can't view in any software I have.
I have tried contacting Corel but get a very cryptic message that a case has been created then "Case creation fail" message!

I installed it updated it and it still crashes. I have a feeling its my videocard but im not sure what and why. My videocard is updated and the reason i believe its my videocard is that when i pull up After Effect "sniffer_GPU.exe" crashes. I know its a different program but any graphical CS4 program crashes.

I've recently updated CC from 12.1 to 12.2 and I cannot launch it anymore. After Effects launches its UI and after 2-3 seconds it crashes without any error message or crash log. My specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Intel Core i5 3450 3.1GHz
Geforce GTX 560
Gigabyte P67A-D3-B3 motherboard
16GB ram
I've already reinstalled After Effects about 4 times, deleted media cache, deleted preferences, updated graphics drivers, rebooted my PC dozens of times but I still can't run it.

I have the Cs5 Master Suite and just installed my new Wacom Intuos3 tablet. I'm running on a Windows 7. Before installing Photoshop never had a problem starting up - now it crashes without fail every time. I tried uninstalling the Wacom, rebooting, running a virus check, blah blah blah, but nothing works. Photoshop crashes every time, whether or not the tablet is plugged in or installed now.

I installed Mavericks and decided to update to Illustrator CC. It downloaded fine and when I went to launch it it opened up to the promo screen showcasing the new features like rounded corners and the segment editing tool etc. When I go to click the "Done" button Ai CC crashes. Nothing I do resolves this. So I ran uninstall and re-installed it and the same exact thing happens every single time.
A few points of fact:
- I have NO PLUGINS installed for Ai CC
- I do have Ai CS5 installed (Need this to access old art in my archive that is FreeHand format)
- I have Ai CS6 installed (Because most of my clients aren't on Ai CC yet)
- Photoshop CC works fine
- MUSE CC works fine
I uninstalled Ai CC again and the past two days had a MAC IT specialist come in and clean up my entire system to make sure it's in perfect condition before I downloaded and tried to install Ai CC again. My system hasn't been this fine tuned since I installed Mountain Lion, everything is working great.
I tried to install Ai CC again and the exact same thing happened it crashes at the promo screen. When I go and click the "Done" button the beach ball spins and the whole app goes down. Every single time with no exception.
Ai CS6 works fine, no problems at all.
Here is the crash report generated when I last tried to install Ai CC: [URL]
My system information is here too in case you need to know machine specs: [URL]
The inane "Adobe Customer Care" on twitter isn't cutting it with their scripted responses that solve nothing and blame everything on the user.
This is really getting old and I've wasted two days of work time because what should be simple, simply is not.

Every so often when I open 2013 inventor it freezes at the startup window. the "progress bar" at the bottom gets about 75% across, then freezes. If I click on the window it, a dialog box appears that will let me close the program or check online for a solution. It has happened on all 7 machines here.

When I start Reference Manager, the program window opens but at the same moment a message window opens saying 'AutoCAD component has stopped working Windows is checking for a solution to the problem...'. A solution is not found, so I can only select 'Close program', and the program closes. I have run Reference Manager successfully a few weeks ago, and after that I haven't installed or removed Autodesk programs. I have Windows 7 64-bit, AutoCAD Mechanical 2012 SP2 and Factory Design Suite Ultimate 2013. I cannot use Reference Manager 2013 (which works) because it saves the files in 2013 format.
In Windows Control Panel / Troubleshooting I found a file with the following text:

I have, of course, uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times, along with computer reboots each time. It is still trying to find this file. I even attempted to find and replace the file so it could find it, but nothing seems to work.

Recently Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes when I launch it on my Windows 7 (64 bit) computer. The splash screen appears but then it just stops working (usually on initializing Tools).
I have read several things so far. To fix it I tried:
- disabling the TWAIN plugin
- resetting all tools
- deleting the Photoshop preferences file.
- deleting my printer from the control panel (some others said printer drivers could cause it)

I've had Gimp 2.8.6 for awhile now but suddenly within the past week it has begun to freeze during the startup process. It will get to 'loading fonts' and then it will stop. I don't have any extra fonts, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, and I've also tried installing previous versions and then updating them but nothing seems to be working.

I have just installed the Gimp 2.4.7 Mac Tiger PPC (with the Help Files) on an iMac G4/800, 768 ram, Nvidia GeForce2 MX (32mb). I was using 2.6.8 but this is obviously the right version for my computer specs. Just a couple of Gimp startup questions. How can I start the Gimp without the Splash Screen? Also, when the Gimp starts, there are 2 long, rectangular boxes. How can I get the "Layers, Channels, Paths" etc. box not to be part of the Gimp startup? Then, in the Main Menu box, I only want it to open only as far as the Paintbrush Configuration area. So when I start the Gimp, I just want the small Main Menu box to open.

Last month, I've been trying GIMP. It works fine, 2.8 one. But, yesterday, I just wanted to open it, actually the startup loads well, but somehow, stopped while attempt to loading fonts, so, I force to close it with task manager. And opening it again. My gimp startup doesn't load earlier, and suddenly loading fonts once the startup opened up. A little moment, my Gimp was not responding, and make the whole WINDOWS NOT RESPONDING. The only way I can, is just shutting it down, forced it, by plugging off the power source
little note, I'm running Gimp 2.8 inside of 32 bit windows 7.

Is this Querying all the plugins each time, normal? It takes quite a while to boot as a result. Great program otherwise.

I experienced this issue with Gimp 2.6 whenever I had a lot of brushes in the brush folder. The only way I found to avoid the problem was to have less brushes in it. As a result, I never got to really use all of them like I had intended to.
The current version I'm using is 2.8. I updated Gimp because I saw the tagging system. I figured it'd be easier to locate the brushes I want to use. The program worked fine up until I added more folders to the brush folder to take advantage of the tagging system. Now the start-up freezes and crashes when it's updating the tagging cache.
In general, Gimp seems to get mad at me when I add a crap ton more than it's comfortable with.

I just got a brand new Dell XPS8500 with Windows 8 2 days ago and installed CS6, and I'm having problems with Photoshop crashing, Indesign has also crashed a few times.
Photoshop seems to be working for a few minutes and then crashes, and just says that it has encountered a problem and needs to close, no further explanation. It looks like my Windows is up to date, but when I try to download Adobe updates it says "The update server is not responding. The server might be offline temporarily or the internet or firewall settings may be incorrect". I didn't think there would be updates, I only installed 2 days ago.

I recently upgraded my laptop to one with Windows 8 (not because of Windows). The File Manager program does not work on my laptop, so I've had to install a third party file management app. Does Lightroom integrate with the Windows app because whenever I try to manage files in Lightroom (plug-in manager, publishing services, import destination) the program crashes. I can't install any plug-in's or add any new folders to my export settings.

Recently installed and then updated Photoshop CS6 Extended - "About" says Version 13.0.1 x32.
Sometimes Photoshop comes up and I can use it, but then I get a Windows XP error"bark," with no error message or error dialog. Once that happens I can no longer open or edit or save images. Other times it will not completely start up.
The "universal" Microsoft Windows "fix," a re-boot of the computer makes the problem go away, until it happens again. I have made sure that there are no errors in the registry with Norton Utilities. Windows XP is up to date.
Is there an error log someplace that Photoshop issues? All other apps on the computer seem to work fine.
