Lightroom Classic no longer opening, yet seems to be running according to task manager in Windows 11.

Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling latest version, running system file repairs, rolling back to previous versions but none of these have resolved the issue.

    Hi ​@Clive32973672lu8l 

     

    Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue. Could you please share a screenshot of what you see when you launch the app? Does it display an error message, crash report, or any other unexpected behavior? Also, could you let me know:

    • Which operating system and version of Lightroom Clasisc are you using?

    • Have there been any recent changes to your system, such as OS or app updates?

    • Have you recently installed or updated any antivirus software, browser extensions, or plugins?

    These details will help narrow down the possible cause and determine the next troubleshooting steps.
