Error message: AI Edits Storage Issue

Hello, 

I have been experiencing a big bug  in my Lightroom catalog. I have this message every time I open my catalog : “Lightroom has encountered an issue updating AI edits. Futur AI edits may not be saved and could be lost.” 

I followed the recommended steps when I clicked the “learn more” button but nothing has changed. 

I have many issues linked to this error such as no successful backups made since a week, every edits made with AI such as removal, denoise, and masking have disappeared. When the AI update button is lit up on a photo to update a mask or denoise for example, it does not work. As soon as the update is over, the button is yellow again. On some masks applied previously, I have the exclamation point in the warning triangle, I cannot update them as well. Furthermore, everything linked to the AI generative removal is lost too and cannot be updated. Also, when I close Lightroom and I want to do a backup, an error message pop up saying that “Lightroom Classic has encountered a problem and needs to close”. 

I checked I have not use my AI credits. It might be due to the TAHOE 26.2 update on Mac and the new version of Lightroom. 

In the mean time I have created a new catalog for the work I need to do quickly but this issue really impacts my workflow and efficiency. If anyone has an idea or has encountered the same issue, please le me know. I am out of option right now. I am waiting for an update from Adobe or to be contacted by a technician. 

Thank you,

I have also been having this problem for the last 72 hours started maybe Wednesday night Ish I can’t open a new catalog I can’t optimize my catalog. There’s an error or a bug in my Lightroom and I cannot find it.

I saw a previous post saying that you can ask the chatbot to talk with an agent. You tap “agent” and he should let you communicate with one except if you are in my case. My account is linked to my school, so when I ask for an agent, the AI redirects me saying that I should contact my administrator, except that we have none at school
