Problem
Adobe Premiere Elements gets stuck at loading PlayerMediaCore.prm during launch.
Solution
-
-
In the Run dialog box, type %appdata% and click OK.
The Roaming folder opens.
-
Navigate to the following location:
Adobe\Premiere Elements
-
Open the Debug Database.txt file.
-
Locate the following flag entry:
DS.ForceCPUOnly false false
-
Modify the flag entry to true as shown below:
DS.ForceCPUOnly true false
-
Save the changes by choosing File > Save in Notepad.
Note:
If Adobe Premiere Elements did not launch properly in the past and this is a first-time installation, you may be unable to locate the flag entry mentioned in Step 5. In that case, replace the code you have on your Debug Database.txt file by copy-pasting the code from the Debug Database.txt file. Then, continue from Step 5.
