@Akpe:
While your suggestion is a potential solution for SOME v14 startup issues, it's not going to work for everyone. But it won't hurt to try your suggestion of creating a new empty database in v12 and making that the default.
Also note that while it's always a GREAT idea to make project export drp's with stills and LUTs for important projects, you should also be able to import projects directly from the original local database into the new empty database, once you have launched v14. But probably one or more of the projects will have an issue of some sort, which is what's preventing the original database from allowing v14 to launch in the first place.
Finally, we don't suggest having multiple versions of Resolve installed at the same time. This can lead to library file conflicts which can cause issues in one of the installed versions. The last version installed will have the correct files, and the other version(s) may have issues.
