Davinci Resolve 17.1 wont open

PostFri Mar 12, 2021 9:34 pm

Hi first time poster and user of Davinci Resolve. I recently downloaded Davinci Resolve 17.1 installed and it installs fine but it fails to launch.

When I try to launch it the launch screen appears for a few seconds and then closes. I have tried uninstalling and deleting program files etc and reinstalling and still the same thing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Below is a link to to a google drive with a system info and an NFO file

I still haven't been able to get it to work hopefully someone from support can help out soon. I have however decided to download Resolve 16.2.8 and installed that and it works. So I'm assuming 17.1 is still buggy?

Paul and Sewar, please post details of your system, especially the GPU and its driver version. These two items are often the cause of Resolve not opening.
Resolve Studio 20.0 build 49
Dell XPS 8700 i7-4790, 24GB RAM, 2 x Evo SSDs, GTX1060/6GB (572.16 Studio Driver), Win10 Home, Speed Editor, Faderport 1, Calibrated Eizo ColorEdge CS230 + BenQ & Samsung monitors for UI, Canon C100mk2, Zoom H2n.
