Hello,
Since a couple of week, Keyshot crash regularly. I don't understand why.
For example, I just want to click on environement tab for my project, it crash!
I change of material, it crash.
Not every time, but sometimes.
Any response are welcome.
thanks

nagelibre,

Thank you for that information. Could you please also provide me with your graphics driver's release date.

How to find the graphics driver's release date.


  • Open the Device Manager on your computer
  • Expand the Display Adapters
  • Right-click your graphics card and select *Properties*
  • Inside the Properties window, go to the *Driver* tab and take a screenshot.

If there is more than one display adapter, then repeat the steps above for your second adapter. Please send me a screenshot for each display adapter.

Hello Ian,
Here are the 2 screenshots of my graphic card and graphic processor

Please try starting KeyShot with the NVIDIA GPU.

How to set the Nvidia Graphics-card as preferred GPU


  • Open the Nvidia control panel
  • Go to "Manage 3D settings"
  • Go to the Program Settings
  • Select KeyShot from the Dropdown. If it is not available ad the KeyShot.exe manually.
  • Select your NVidia graphics card under "preferred graphics processor"
  • Click "Apply" and restart KeyShot

Please let me know if that fixes the crashing issue

Thanks a lot ;)
