I might have made a similar post to this about a year ago, but regardless, here’s the issue:
I have updated my graphics card after multiple files stopped working, such as Godot, Pixelorama, and Blender. My Hunion drawing tablet also wouldn’t show images. After the update, all worked well, but new issues arrived for Blender. When opening it, I could see the splash screen and move around the default scene. But as soon as I click on a previous file I made or open a Blend. file, it instantly closes. It doesn’t go white or anything, it just closes. Same thing happens when I insert an object into a scene. I’m working with Blender 4.0 on a Windows 11, and I even tried downloading 4.1, but although I could insert objects into scenes and access files made specifically in 4.1, I could access MY files. What can I do?
Maybe you mention you graphics card/ driver version so someone with the same may reply?
Also: with or without your displaying hunion tablet connected ? This may also course trouble?
Never mind. When I went away from my computer for a while, the drivers regressed back to their unintended state. After updating them again and forcing Windows to stop updating the drivers, the same issue I had above started to persist again. Weirdly, it seams to only happen to .blend files with models in them, as video projects don’t seem to be affected.
As mentioned above, run blender using Command Processor.
This leaves the Command Processor with a record of the entire process even after the blender is terminated.
Of course, there may be issues that are not recorded.
Alternatively, completely uninstall and reinstall the graphics driver that is the beginning of the problem.
If there is a problem with the graphics driver, the problem may not be resolved in the graphics driver update and the problem may remain.
Thanks again for clarification, I should, however, mention that I am an ammeture in computer stuff, so the specifics of how to use the Command Processor may need to be explained to me more concisely (all I know how to do is open the Command Processor). If the link already explained how and I’m just being redundant, then that’s on me, and I apologize.
When I got to the administrative Command Processor, I copy “cd C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\blender_4X” to the processor and click enter, only for it to say “The system cannot find the path specified”.
I’m probably doing it wrong, but I don’t really know how to do it right either. I don’t usually so much as glance at the Command Processor… ever.
cd C:\Program Files\BlenderFoundation\blender_4X This is the path I use.
Write down the path of the blender you use.
Probably the same up to the cd C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation.
The video below shows Command Line Rending.
But the process is the same as described above.
I think this video will be helpful.
Additionally…
Try to reset the blender’s factory as well.
This is also a way to solve many problems.
※ Reinstalling the blender may cause the problem to persist.
This is because the existing configuration file is in a different location than the installation location. In this case, factory reset is helpful.
Which GPU model are you using?
If you used it normally before updating the GPU driver, try using the previous version of the driver, not the latest version.
Yeah, I tried doing what the video said, but it kept saying that it wasn’t recognizable as an internal or external command.
In terms of GPU, I have an AMD Radeon RX 6400 and an AMD Radeon™ Graphics. I only updated the RX 6400 from HP, which is now the latest version on Windows 11. Of course, I could download previous versions and see what happens, but after I restart my computer (just in case)
