Creative cloud crashed and I received the following error msg so I clicked on the lonk and reinstalled CC again.

 

 

 

 

After installing CC I opened it up and received this so I started reinstalling the apps.

So after reinstalling LR classic, I tried opening to see how much adobe screwed up my catalog but was unable to tell as I now am getting the following error msg.

 

So I decided to check if there was an update to the CC that I just DL and installed from your site from your link and I'm not surprised but there are updates to the program that I just Dl from your link.

My first assumption is that you have more than one version of Lightroom Classic installed. This is not normal. Usually this takes a bit of trickery to accomplish as the Adobe applications want to uninstall the old while installing the new.

 

So launch Lightroom Classic. See if you still get the error, create a new catalog if you cannot open the existing catalog. Click on Help, click on System Info, and note the Lightroom Classic version.

 

What is it?
