P: TIFF file reloads after each Develop edit, potential data loss

LR6 (CC), edit TIF file (imported from PS or NIK). Image "reloads" after almost every Develop module edit. In some cases, all previous Develop module settings are lost, and the image reverts to it's original appearance. Even though the previous Develop module edits are still shown on the History panel - they no longer have any effect. Result - total loss of all user edits.

Workaround: disable "Automatically write changes to XMP" in catalog settings. This is what appears to trigger the constant "reloads".

Note this does not appear to be related to GPU - the problem occurs exactly the same whether GPU is enabled or disabled. Also note, the problem does NOT occur when editing RAW files. So far, it appears to occur only with TIF files.

Seems to be with TIF files that I work with through Nik Collections software through LR, after working on the photo and it creates the edited TIF back in LR the re loading of the image happens after every edit occurs. I reached out to Nik Collections support, their response was this is an Adobe issue. Only way around this was to disable the XMP.

I've often experienced "reloading" in the develop module this week with raw files; I'm not working with tiff files. I am using LR6, not CC, on an iMac using Yosemite. I will try your solution Jim, thank you.
