Same!

I am having the same issue on 5/1/25. Lightroom Classic was updated 2 days ago, and upon installing presets to my new working catalog (I create a catalog for each session) I am unable to use any presets. Would love a solution that doesn't invovle downloading an older version. Busy summer coming up!

See this article for how to roll back to LR 14.2, the only known workaround:

Ho do I go back to 14.2?

How do I revert back to 14.2 until this is resolved?

I am having the same problem with Lightroom Classic and it doesn't give me an option to go back to previous version. Will uninstalling and installing it again work? I really need to fix this issue asap, slowing my work flow down rapidly. Please help.

After the last update it gives an error: failure loading masking models. Try again later. Reinstallation didn't help.

How to resolve this issue?

@Lugdivine, the only known workaround is to roll back to LR 14.2:
