In that screenshot, it appears you are in the Library Module, perhaps post Import. And of note is the Folders panel that appears to be showing an SD card (or other memory card) as the source. How did you Import? By that I mean did you select Copy, Copy as DNG, or Add? Actually, if an SD card, the Add should not have been possible. Not knowing which camera, and thus not knowing what sort of memory storage you have, makes it hard to know. If your memory is a CFexpress (I think), then it is perhaps possible to make that mistake.     ... View more

One issue that stands out, that GPU driver would be v581.57. But the current STUDIO READY one is v 591.44. Not sure if there's a Driver issue. In fact, not sure if the newer driver would help or hinder (there have been some posts on newer RTX 5000 series drivers being bad) ... View more

"NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (32.0.15.8157)" "Dedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 5050.5MB / 15907.0MB (31%)"   So, a newer NVIDIA GPU with apparently 16 GB of VRAM. Also, the only actual GPU card, other than the Integrated video controls on the motherboard.    This is in comparison to an older by two generations NVIDIA RTX 3090, that you need a Power cable adapter for? I see that the 3090 has more VRAM than the 5070. And the 5070 is two family models less than the 3090 (a 5070 would out perform a 3070, not so sure of a 3090, especially keeping VRAm in consideration)   Does the newer 5070 not need more power than the 3090? And in fact, a different cord?   Not sure at all if the GPU is the issue. Hopefully, another member with a 5070 or similar can weigh in. ... View more

Interesting, at first I brought up LrC, and in Library grid view I selected one image, then I selected the F key, followed by the I key, and the info did show up. Then I thought to myself, the OP mentioned Flags, so I went out of full view and added a Flag, selected F again, then I, but no flag. Now that would be caused by the Loupe View options for info to not include the flag, so I changed that to show common attributes, and tried again. Dang, no info.

On the offending computer, bring up your Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App. Sign out. Then sign back in. Watch for any error messages or notifications. Then see if anything changes. Note that if the signing back in fails, then you will not be able to use LrC, Lr, PS, etc. If that did not solve anything other than time wasted, then consider removing the Adobe CC apps, and the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App, and then download a fresh new copy of the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App, followed by installing PS, then LrC, then Lr, Bridge, etc (It may be important to install PS first, the other apps in any order after PS)   Some links about cleaning up Adobe Creative Cloud, and about removing the Creative Cloud Desktop App:   Download and run the Creative Cloud Cleaner tool Uninstall Creative Cloud desktop app Note: Pay attention to the directions and any warnings in those links.

So, in your screenshot, there are four actual catalogs shown. I have no idea what one is the one you want. And I do not know if additional catalog exists in another folder, or for that mater in that folder named Lightroom.   You could consider double-clicking on one to see what comes up. BUT, you might want to make sure you have a copy before doing so.   Speaking to OneDrive. One method of dissociating would be to create a new folder, likely at the root level, choose a folder name you like, perhaps MyLightroom, or MyPhotos, or Rumplstiliskin, anything other than Pictures, Documents, Downloads, Music, Videos. Copy a catalog to that folder, and try to open it (you will have an issue with missing photographs that can be fixed)   https://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm   ...

I see two files that might be your catalog. But as the file name extensions are not shown, it is hard to be sure.   In your Windows File Explorer, enable filename extensions (view) to assist in this   Also, one issue that just screams potential disaster, and at least potential performance hit, is your use of MS OneDrrive file sync for the folder your catalog is in. Some state that LrC and OneDrive is the best thing since sliced bread, many others think it is a disaster waiting to happen. This is not a user-caused error. This is caused by Microsoft insisting that people use MS accounts to login to Windows as opposed to Local Accounts (It is tricky to do otherwise) and MS assistance on OneDrive being used by default to sync to the cloud several user library folders. (Pictures is one of those folders)  (The above may or may not be your catalog in question, I just posted that to show why I think OneDrive is in play)   What occurs is that each and every edit in LrC causes a sync to the cloud, to OneDrive. Hence, a lot of communication between your computer and the cloud. And on a bad day, when the Internet is slow, or MS Servers are taking a hit, LrC performance can take a hit. And on very very bad days, but rarely, the catalog can get corrupted.   Oh, and that blue circular symbol to the left? Sync underway, busy busy:     Typical recommendation is to either disable the folder sync to OneDrive, or move the catalog to a different folder not associated with OneDrive (typically a folder you create)   ...
