Rhino8 does not open for me, when I double click it seems to open and then it crashes
Hi Miguel -
Does Rhino 7 still open fine? If so, please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.

Hi @miguelayora3
Also, try to start Rhino 8 in Safe Mode, and see if that starts. If yes, there’s a good chance it’s either a graphics card driver issue or a 3rd party plugin causing problems.

I tried and it doesn’t open either
V8 in safe mode, then disable all those 3rd party plug-in in Options > Plug-ins
If V8 won’t start in Safe mode, make sure Windows is fully up to date and rebooted, then in Control Panel, find Rhino 8 and do a “Repair”.
Don’t be surprised if you need to reboot again.
