*I didn't even know what version of my Clipchamp because it doesn't have any "about this app" information

after update my clipchamp*. Every time I open Clipchamp to edit video or audio, it starts up extremely slowly. It takes 3 steps to load:

1 load with white screen**Screenshot 2026-06-05 132755

2 load with black screenScreenshot 2026-06-05 132759

2,5 load with black screen with a ton of lag
"kickstart your creativity with templates" ad (appear briefly and then disappeared)Screenshot 2026-06-05 133435
in that new version*, it won't open the file, only show home screen. I need to manually "Create a new video"Screenshot 2026-06-05 132839

3 load in "create a new video" part

i need to manually put the video/audio file into that, it is no longer available for immediate use

It takes an average of about 00:02:03 (2min3sec) to start up, Capcut only takes about 4 seconds to startup, Audacity opens immediately.

**I turned the dark mode on, but why it brighter than softcore h*ntai?

now i have a several questions/suggestions:

  1. PLEASE improve the startup time please please please
  2. Fix the dark mode for this app
  3. I want to edit the file video/audio, Why is it no longer available at startup for me to edit and why do I have to open it manually?
  4. Why you need to put on that st***d ad on the startup? We have extensive knowledge of video editing, even more professional than the editors at Microslop
  5. Why this program always want me to save into that st***d Onedrive? There's no way to disable it
  6. What the hell is it loading for? Load slopilot, load tracking, load spyware, load keylogger, load cloud, load webview, load ram eating, load upload-all-of-my-files-to-Microslop or load WHAT?. The older version* takes only about 14 seconds to startup!
  7. I need "About this app", You lack integrity and responsibility in developing your own product. Even the version information - the most basic thing is missing and there are only vague, generic licenses

    The extreme startup delays, lag, and black screens in the new Clipchamp update happen because the app has transitioned into a cloud-dependent web wrapper. At startup, it aggressively loads tracking scripts, promotional templates, and OneDrive connection checks before it even lets you see your local workspace. To speed things up, reset the application's broken state by going to Windows Settings > Apps > Installed Apps > Clipchamp > Advanced Options and clicking Reset to wipe out corrupted update cache. To fix the blindingly washed-out dark mode and bypass the sluggish Windows Store interface altogether, try opening your browser, logging into app.clipchamp.com, and installing it directly from the address bar as a Progressive Web App (PWA); this version handles hardware acceleration much better, runs noticeably faster, and lets you work without the clunky desktop app background lag.
