Lightroom 6. (Standalone) W8.1 Pro. Hp, intel i7 3.3 16g mem.

1. Pressing F locks lightroom in full screen. Only way is out is using task manager to close lightroom. Tested on two different computers, same results.

2: Playing video in full screen mode, locks up lightroom, video does not scale correctly. Test on two computers same results.

That's 6.1. If it's all blue and looks like the movie avatar then you've got 6.2

How can I see which I have 6.1 or 6.2?

Just revert to 6.1 - 6.2 is so terrible - It's in no state to be showing client anything. Else export to JPEG and show them in preview.

Antoine, I don't think I had the spot remover open. After my client leaves I'll try to figure out what is causing it. I usually can go to full screen a couple times in Develop and it works fine, then freezes.

As for reverting back to 6.1.1 I had a several problems, one of them still persisting after biting the bullet and installing 6.2, the system keeps asking me to validate the account every time I open Lightroom!!!

Make sure you are not using the Spot Removal, if it is on just press Done and you will have no problem using the "F". Please note that was my problem, I don't know if other features would create the same bug. Good luck.

Revert back to CC 2015.1.1 / 6.1.1, as recommended by LR experts Victoria Bampton and Laura Shoe: http://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-do-...

Updated to the latest Lightroom. Having trouble with freezing in full screen when I use 'F'. I have clients coming tomorrow so did a search for this problem and found this. This is going to make me look very unprofessional with my clients.

Any immediate solutions?
