Need help because Shotcut crashes when menu to View/Filter

When I enable the filter tab without having clips in the timeline, it causes a glitch in the UI (tab title appears above menu bar). It might be enough to just import a clip and put it in the timeline first.

Some more ideas:

  1. Delete config files, see https://www.shotcut.org/FAQ/#where-are-the-log-presets-database-and-settings-stored
  2. Reinstall, pick the delete registry configuration setting.
  3. Update graphics drivers.
  4. Run as admin or uninstall and use the portable version.

Some of these are covered in this video for more clarity:
