P: Desktop: needs to restart to clean?

And here's close up of the sync window

Hi Rikk ... cloud icon in top right corner does have rotating progress circle...

Hi Rikk,

I was able to access preferences despite having the message pop up on my screen - here below is the log. 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/kc2zpo74dt34rx4/DiagnosticLog.html?dl=0

Also, I tried accessing the log through the Lightroom CC folder, but I couldn't find that folder for some reason - sending below a screen shot of the path that I have incase you may find it handy.

also - I updated my Mac to Bug Sur - still getting the same message.. I uninstalled and reinstalled lightroom after Big Sur upgrade, that hasn't resolved the problem either unfortunately.

Hi Rikk, no files on cloud - everything on the system.. please see image below:

We'd like to obtain files from you: 

First if you have access to the Lightroom>Preferences Menu we'd like to obtain a Diagnostic Log. 

For LrDesktop

Go to Preferences

Account Section

Hold down the [Opt/Alt] key to make [Diagnostic Log] button appear.

If you cannot reach this menu send us: 

The lrcc_console.log file in the ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom CC folder.

Thanks!

Go to your Cloud icon and capture the screen so I can see your status please. 

@mmakki - are you fully synced to the cloud or do you have syncs pending?

I tried to install older versions of lightroom (the ones available on CC - versions 4.0 and 3.4) - unfortunately that didn't work either, still getting the same message. I feel the next step is to updgrade my OS to Big Sur (which I do not want to do)

another update - I used the adobe creative cleaner tool to remove all adobe files on my laptop. I then reinstalled cloud and Lightroom again (nothing else) - still getting the message: 

"Lightroom needs to restart to clean some things up for you."

lightroom restarts and the message repeats.

forgot to mention Im on Mojave - 10.14.6
