C10 Crashing on Initialising (Win10)

Cubase
,
1

The last few weeks I’ve noticed older projects from 9.5 refusing to load/crash in C10. And now C10 has refused to get any further than ‘initialising’ on the splash screen. Tried safe mode, reinstalling/updating, changing compatibility mode, run as admin etc but to no avail. Any ideas ???

Hi,

Make sure your plug-ins are up to date, please.

3

I’ve tried everything. Nothing seems to work.

Hi,

The crash is in ADPTR Audio MetricAB plug-in.

5

Removed the ADPTR Audio MetricAB plug-in and C10 still crashes on ‘initialising’

Hi,

Could you attach the dmp files now, without the plug-in, please?

Here is latest C10 dmp file, C9.5 seems to be running ok. Thanks

Hi,

What graphics card do you have, please? Have you tried to update your graphics card driver, please?

11

Its a 1070 Nvida Graphics card. All drivers are up to date.

Hi,

It seems, some plug-in is crashing Cubase.

Could you try to rename all the folders, where are your 3rd party plug-ins installed and start Cubase again, please? If Cubase starts, could you try to remove all plug-ins from the folder, and but them back (in a groups of vendors, for example), and sort it out, which plug-in makes Cubase crash?

HI Martin,

I tried as you suggested but unfortunately C10 still crashes on initialising screen.

14

Hi,

Does it mean, Cubase crashes even if there is none of 3rd plug-in?

Could you attach new crash dump file from this setup, please?

15

Hi, i waited to try again with the new update 10.0.20 and unfortunately C10 still crashes on initialising !

Please try removing the u-he’s Uhbik(x64).vst3 and see if it still crashes.
As far as I can see, this is the last item touched by Cubase in your start-up process.
