LRC: 13.5.1Windows 11Lightroom has been really slow for me, and I was sure that facial recognition was turned off, but today I was scanning some photos that had group pictures, and LRC is still recognizing faces when I’ve explicitly turned it off. Note that it was turned off before this screen capture and has been turned off as long as I can remember, but LRC is clearly still doing it. How can I stop this? I don’t want LRC to recognize faces. I don’t want it, don’t need it, and it’s taking computer resources and slowing down my work. Thanks  NB: I am not upgrading to the newest version because it is incompatible with my Fuji GFX100 due to LRC’s native tethering causing issues. Thanks

Please advise: When I try to start LrC 2025 i receive the Error message "The Lightroom Catalog 'file name' is corrupt and cannot be used until it is repaired."  LrC will not open when I double click to start. I also have a permanent banner on my screen stating "Lightroom - Opening Catalog: File Name.psd"  This is on the Windows platform, Windows 11. I have tried re-booting, re-installing LrC, but nothing works.  NOTE: I'm an experienced LrC user, and an inexperienced PS user. Before this happened, I tried to save a file from PS, then import it to LrC after deleting a previous version of the same file.  Please help.

I’m having an issue with the Pixieset Lightroom Classic plugin and need help recovering my published photo associations.My normal workflow is to use separate Lightroom Classic catalogs for different clients. From each catalog, I go to Publish Services → Pixieset, create/select the appropriate Pixieset collection and Highlights set, drag photos from my Lightroom Library into the set, and publish them.Until recently, when I opened one of my Lightroom catalogs and accessed Pixieset under Publish Services, my existing Pixieset collections would appear with the photos already associated with their corresponding sets.Something changed yesterday. Now the collection names and Highlights sets still appear in Lightroom, but they show 0 photos. The actual photos and galleries are still completely intact and visible on my Pixieset account.The behavior is also catalog-dependent: when I open a catalog containing the photos originally associated with a particular collection, those photos can still ap

This behavior occured in the last week, after the latest upadate of Lightroom Classic.  Other approaches yielded the same deletion of the selected image.

Lightroom Classic Persistent Crashes & Launch Failures1. System & Version ContextApplication: Adobe Lightroom Classic (LRC)Primary Trigger Point: Issues began/intensified following the v15.4 updatePrimary Symptoms: * Frequent crashes and heap corruption during resource-heavy tasks (specifically AI-assisted culling).Intermittent total launch failures (LRC failing to open entirely).Suspected underlying causes: Memory leaks, database bottlenecks, and profile-specific local application state corruption.2. Completed Troubleshooting StepsTo save time, please note that the following extensive diagnostic steps have already been performed:Catalog & File ManagementStorage Environment: Migrated the primary catalog to a high-speed internal SSD to eliminate external drive bottlenecks.Lock File Maintenance: Manually located and deleted temporary ⁠.lock⁠ files when the application failed to initialize.Cache Clearing: Completely cleared legacy cache folders.Catalog Isolation: Tested launch

When I attempt to open more than one image in an outside editor (photoshop, evoto, etc), from the library module, select all images and then right click, and select edit in, the dialog box about selecting file type appears, however only the active image is copied as a TIFF and opened. I’ve tried deselecting all then reselecting, but no matter what there is an active image and that is the only one that opens. 

Hi everyone,while Adobe seems wants to use all its energies to build a software to modify the reality with the AI (90% of the advertisements – email, websites, social networks only promote the AI’s features to eliminate people or objects, change the colours, etc.) I’m impressed by the partnership between the most important American news agency ‘Associated Press’ (AP) and the Danish company Capture One.What do you think about it?It’s not about the possibility to use or not use the AI, It’s about the direction that Adobe decided to give to the Photography pushing people to use the AI more and more massively. All the best,eliano

Tengo una colección en Lightroom Classic con muchas fotografías a las que, en su momento, apliqué los mismos ajustes.El problema es que no recuerdo qué preset utilicé originalmente. Al revisar el panel Historial de las fotografías, no aparece el nombre del preset, sino únicamente la acción “Pegar ajustes”, ya que aparentemente copié los ajustes desde otra fotografía y luego los pegué en las demás.¿Existe alguna forma de saber qué preset fue el origen de esos ajustes?Por ejemplo:¿Lightroom guarda en algún metadato o archivo el nombre del preset utilizado originalmente? ¿Es posible comparar los ajustes actuales de una fotografía con mis presets instalados para encontrar cuál coincide? ¿Hay alguna otra manera de rastrear el preset desde el catálogo o el archivo XMP?Tengo todos los presets que utilizaba en esa época; simplemente necesito identificar cuál de ellos corresponde a esos ajustes.Gracias.

Description of IssueOn Leica DNG files, Transform > Upright > Guided correctly applies the camera-embedded Perspective Control (LPC) guide lines the first time, as long as the photo has not been edited yet. Clicking Update (“Aktualisieren”) after that does not re-apply the embedded Leica guides. The LPC correction is lost or cannot be recalculated.This is specific to Leica Perspective Control metadata.

When importing images from an external drive or an SD card when I click on Import nothing happens except that the menu items “import photos and video” are greyed out. Lightroom worked perfectly earlier this week. Mac Mini M1. 

The darker areas are usually the areas that need denoising the most.  It would be helpful to provide a slider for selecting and identifying this areas and be able to deniise just those areas.  Suggestions for improvement if this is possible.

Sinds de laatste update van Adobe LrC 16.5 worden de foto's enkel uit de catalogus verwijderd. Ik krijg wel het scherm efkens te zien waar ik de keuze kan maken, maar dit verdwijnt onmiddellijk en de foto verdwijnt in LRC catalog maar blijft wel op de schijf staanWaar kan ik een aanpassing doen om dat schermpje langer in beeld te hebben om een ​​keuze te kunnen maken

Hello! I have the latest Lightroom Classic 15.0.1 and have had no problems! But for my latest session I need to use the reflections removal which I've never used before. It allows me to check the reflections removal tool and it loads but then after loading nothing has happened and it won't let me use the slider at all either like it is not applied. 

I'm trying to update some settings on multiple images. In Develop mode, I start by making the corrections to a single image, and then click the "Copy ..." button. I then select multiple images in the Filmstrip and click "Paste". This works just fine, but only on the 1st image/highlighted image, and not the whole selection. Am I doing something wrong here? Shouldn't I be able to update multiple images, at once, like a batch process?Thanks in advance.

In wake of a power outage, when I reopened LrC, ALL of my images had been moved to a new location. Some of which remained intact as thumbnails and others completely missing. Is there any way to revive the current catalog? If so, how? Matthew

Summary:The Map module fails to render any map content. On launch, the world map appears very briefly, then the entire module goes grey and stays grey indefinitely. No persistent error is shown, though a fugitive message reading "Unable to connect to Adobe servers. The Map module is not working." occasionally flashes on screen for a fraction of a second before disappearing. This matches other open reports of the same bug (e.g. the "(Europe) Map Module not showing a Map" thread, open since LR 14.2 in early 2025 and still unresolved as of 15.5).Environment:Lightroom Classic version: 15.5 [202607291506-b8869fa7] OS: Windows 11 Home, version 11.0.26200 GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER (driver 32.0.16.1088) GPU acceleration: Off (User Preference: Off, GPUDeviceEnabled: false) Displays: two monitors, both 3840×2160, system running at 200% (192 DPI) scaling Language: EnglishSteps to reproduce:Open Lightroom Classic with a catalog containing photos that have GPS coordinates embedded in th

So I have been trying to fix this problem for so long and I cannot seem to figure it out. Whenever I go to select an object, keep in mind the object is very clear, it literally does nothing. It maybe buffers for a second or two but then nothing selects and the mask just goes away. Every single other ai feature in lightroom classic works for me, including subject and denoise. This is the only one that doesn't seem to work. I also just recently upgraded my GPU so it is completely updated and meets the requirements for adobe lightroom classic. I am also on the most recent version of lightroom, 15.1.1. If anyone has a solution to this please reply because this has been driving me nuts. Thank you!

I can't get Lightroom Classic to launch. When I try to I get spinning wheel while the computer thinks about it for a second then nothing happens, but Lightroom Classic shows up as a Background Process in Task Manager. This only happens with Lightroom Classic, I also have Photoshop and Lightroom (not classic) and both of those work with no issue. I have tried un-installing + reinstalling including using Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner but always with the same result (everything except Lightroom Classic works). Is anyone able to help or experienced something similar? Details below. Creative Cloud 5.3.1.470Lightroom Classic 10.0Windows 10 Pro Version 20H2

After updating to 15.5, I noticed during the last editing cession of a dozen of landscape pictures with various masks that the histogram disappeared from its window. The RGB values were still changing when the cursor moved over the picture, proving the window was still active. The histogram returned only after entering and exiting the masking tool. But scanning through the photos make it disapeared again later in the develop module for some pictures.I had to relaunch LRC to have the histogram window working again as it is supposed to be.Unfortunately this bug seems to happen randomly and cannot be repeated on purpose.My config is Apple MacBook Pro M1 Max 24Mo Ram OSX latest version of Tahoe, LRC 15.5.I must say this is the third strange behaviours since the update to 15.5. The first was the uncontrollable scrolling with the arrow key in the film strip, the second being the loss of the zoom ratio in Full view returning automatically to 33.3%. Restarting LRC solved apparently both issues

Since updating to the latest Lightroom Classic 15.5 version on a MacBook Pro M1 Max, I have noticed several erratic display and navigation behaviors in the Develop module.First, when viewing photos in Full Screen mode (F key), the zoom setting of the Develop module no longer seems to be retained. For example, if the Develop module is set to 200%, clicking on the image while in Full Screen view unexpectedly changes the view to 33%, instead of retaining the previously selected zoom level.A second, and more significant, issue concerns navigation through the filmstrip using the arrow keys.A short press on an arrow key can now cause several photos to be skipped. Holding the key down launches extremely fast scrolling through the filmstrip, sometimes advancing through several dozen photos. With a longer key press, the scrolling can even continue indefinitely and can only be stopped by clicking directly on the filmstrip.During this scrolling, the main Develop view becomes completely frozen and

I edit a photo, go back to Library grid, open another file for editing, when I enter Develop module loupe view what appears to be a double exposure appears. Problem is resolved by quitting LR and reopening, but returns after a few additional edits. Mac M2 Mini with Graphics Processor ON; Sequoia 15.6.1 

Hi there, I’ve been struggling with a recurring bug in Lightroom Classic (v14.3.1) related to the AI-based Remove tool and the “Update AI Settings” prompt. Here’s what’s happening: I’ll use the Remove tool on an image and allow it to finish processing.I’ll then move to another image and continue editing.When I return to the original image a few minutes later, the removed object has reappeared.A triangle with an exclamation point shows up, prompting me to “Update AI Settings” — even though I’ve already done this previously.This cycle keeps repeating, and edits don’t stick.     What I’ve tried (and confirmed):  I’m running Lightroom Classic v14.3.1 on Windows 11.GPU settings are set to “Auto”, but I also tried manually enabling full GPU acceleration.I’ve restarted Lightroom, reinstalled Lightroom, and even paused cloud syncing.I’ve waited for the AI edit to finish before moving to another image.I cleared the masking cache by deleting the Helpe
