What the title says. I've been trying to figure this out, been chatting with customer service for 4 hours now, we have tried everything. Drivers, clean install, win10, adobe cleaner tool, etc.

Any tips suggestions please?

 

Do you think is it safe to let them have remote acces to my computer to try and fix it from their end?

As a courtesy to others I have locked the other two year old thread you posted in as well.

Hope you get it sorted out 👍👍

Below are links to the GPU Troubleshooting Guide plus the FAQ. If you haven't already tried either, then best do so.

Adobe lightroom classic 10.4 (same issue with any 10.3 and later versions)

Windows 10 (latest update)

"Graphics acceleration is disabled due to an error"

Just opened lightroom, saw it was bit slow, went to check gpu acc. then saw the issue

Make sure you have the latest driver for the GPU. Or if you already have the latest driver, try rolling back to an earlier version of the driver.

 

Update to LrC 11.1.

 

Try resetting preferences. https://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-do-i-reset-lightrooms-preferences/
