P: Hanging, requires force quit

There are a few other discussions where this issue is being reported but i believe they have other issues clouding the discussion

 

Since the update to .3 and subsequently 3.1 Lightroom Classic CC hangs after being idle for a time (i can;t be specific on time as it seem to change). It does not happen necessarily on sleeping from the computer or in one module or another or when changing windows or minimizing or maximizing

 

It hangs and i am forced to "end task" through Task Manager

 

I am on a completely up to date (drivers and software and Windows) Win 10 Pro 64 system with 128gb RAM and plenty of horsepower and disk space (NVME and SSD)

 

My system has no problems with any other programs

 

please fix this

Same issues. Not a computer problem, it's a Lightroom problem. The fact Adobe discounts our issues because one of their people couldn't replicate it on his computer is hilariously maddening.

Keith, 

You should probably start a new thread as this issue has been closed. Make sure you include system information and a precise description of what is happening so we can better diagnose.

Mine's working now.  Thanks for finally fixing it.  Good product overall and I had never had that many problems.  Would like a little better communication though there was some through 3rd parties such as the fabulous Lightroom Queen.  I will cop to the fact that with software of this complexity and huge customer base that ADobe has to be careful with testing before they deploy and hence couldn't just throw something out quickly.  A rush job always leads to more problems.  Have a good one everybody.  Happy summer!

I just upgraded to 7.4 and as of this morning it has been fine.  It did not crash when I returned to use it this morning after sitting idle all night.  .3/.31 would freeze as everyone else has been describing.  My only issue has been with opening images in PS from 7.4.  I did a reboot when I left this morning and hope it fixes it.
Win10 right up to date.

Ran 7.4 in the background most of yesterday and it never hung once. Early days, but a promising start.

Jeff, just to be clear when you described the program hang were you referring to the LR 7.3/LR 7.3.1 versions or the latest 7.4 version just released in the last few days. I have been running 7.4 for a few days now and so far the bugs that I had reported earlier have not been seen in LR 7.4 for me.

I have also been experiencing this issue.  Just installing the latest update June 21/18.  Hoping it solves something but not holding my breath.  I typically leave LR running all the time and I come and go at will.  Now when I return at varying duration's, the program has stopped and I must force shutdown.  I have no additional information I can add to what others have said but wanted to be included to make our voice a little louder.

Never mind, the CC app itself was wedged.  I killed it through ProcessExplorer and restarted it, and now it shows updates.  I hope the CC updates fix the problem of CC itself hanging.
Signing out also didn't work.  CC itself was seriously wedged.
