Question

Noticeably slow and delayed during editing

Hello Adobe Support,

I'm experiencing several serious issues with Adobe Lightroom CC that are affecting my editing workflow:

  1. The application becomes noticeably slow and delayed during editing. Adjustments such as Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, and other sliders often respond with significant lag.

  2. Due to this delay, Lightroom sometimes applies my edits to the wrong image. For example, when I brighten a photo, the adjustment may not appear immediately on the current image. If I move to the next photo, the adjustment is then applied there instead. This creates confusion and forces me to go back and check every image manually.

  3. The same issue occurs with tools such as Crop and Healing/Remove. At times, I perform a crop or healing adjustment on one image, but because of the delay, Lightroom applies the action to the next image I select. In some cases, the healing brush appears in the same position on the following photo instead of the photo I was originally editing.

  4. While actively editing, photos also sometimes rotate automatically without any intentional input from me. This unexpected auto-rotation interrupts my workflow and makes editing even more difficult.

These issues are seriously impacting my productivity and making Lightroom unreliable for professional editing work. I would appreciate your assistance in identifying the cause and providing a solution.

Please let me know if you require additional information such as my system specifications, Lightroom version, screen recordings, or sample files.

Thank you for your support.
