Did complete uninstall and reinstalled B8 - same issue.

Uninstall Resolve using Windows Control Panel - Programs and Features.

Also uninstall any other Resolve related apps, such as Resolve Keyboard, Resolve Panels and Fairlight apps.

Don't uninstall PostgreSQL 9.5.

Rename folder C:\ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve to C:\ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve.bak

Rename folder C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve to C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve.bak
