When trying to import a large amount of RAW files from a folder from Google Drive Client into Lighroom Classic, it hangs and stop reacting and has to be stopped by “killing” LR Classic.
To verify if that problem has to do with the large size I tried the following steps:
- Moving the folder with large size(23 GB) from Google Drive to another location which is not on Google Drive → LR Classic Import works fine
- Creating a new folder whith much smaller file size on Google Drive → LR Classic Import works fine
- Trying to import large folder(23 GB) from Google Drive → LR Classic hangs and stops reacting
I verfied:
- Files in Google Drive are fully synced
- Google Drive latest version installed
Version info:
LR Classic 15.2.1
Windows 11 x64 25H2 26200.7462
Google Drive Client 122.0.1.0
