This has happened multiple times over the past few weeks.  At first, the paste settings feature works correctly when batch photo editing.  Then, it continuously freezes and I have to restart Lightroom continuously until all photos have been correctly edited.  Could you please look into this issue?  I have more than enough power on my computer for this to run, and a top of the line graphics card, so there should be no reason why I am continuously having issues with this.  Thank you!

I shot series of 900 images to create a time lapse yesterday. I have imported the photos into Lightroom CC 2020 desktop, and after editing one image, I was able to copy the settings. The problem comes in when I paste the settings into the remaining 899 images, Lightroom will successfully edit about 10 images, and then freeze for an indefinite amount of time.

I am having the same issue with LR freezing when I copy and paste more than a handful of images. It's so frustrating. It worked fine before the update. Any news on when a fix is coming?

This thread is being merged into an authoritative thread for better tracking and response. 

Any batch edit over 4 images freezes and doesnt update. I get the endless loading loop. I recently took a lot of watch images for a customer and went to apply similar edit settings across the album and it froze after the 4th image. I left my computer running all night and it never advanced past the 4th image. I then restarted the app tied again and it applied the settings to the next 4 images and stopped. I rebooted my computer and it tried again, it edited the next 4 images and stopped again. Ive made sure Lightroom CC and Windows are up to date along with all drivers for my GPU and no changes. This is seriously slowing down my work flow having to constantly restart the program. I have tried doing it without syncing being active and it doesnt help either.

Cancelling "Paste Settings" doesn't cancel
Close Lightroom-> Sometimes error message shown (not every time)

The same for me, just wanted to report the issue when this thread was first in the list of articles. Saga continues... I did not expect to see such an error in so mature product, I am using LR for years now, resigned from LR Classic last year... and now this. The production cycle is two months? Then maybe Adobe should wait two months with subscription payment?

@Rikk this issue is still not fixed. Is there any light at the end of the tunnel on this?
