Hi All,It's painfully slow to use after upgrading from win10 to win11. Especially the masking. When LR is running, even typing in the browser is slow, it completely takes up the PC, if LR and PS are running at the same time, the computer freezes. There were no problems when using Win10.All drivers updated manually.?? Is there a way to fix it or update LR ??Because it's impossible to work with the software like thisThank you for your help!Peter Lightroom Classic version: 14.5.1 [ 202508231203-c2638d01 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11Version: 11.0.26200Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 8Processor speed: 3,6GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 4,0%Power Source: Plugged InBuilt-in memory: 32686,8 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 3465,7MB / 6029,0MB (57%)Real memory available to Lightroom: 32686,8 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 5770,8 MB (17,6%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 15200,0 MBGDI

I have a MacBook Pro 2019 with Lrc 2025 . It will find my external hard drive but it can not find Apple photos from my phone. I have been into setting and given access to files and folders to Lightroom Classic and still no Joy. what have I missed

 Can you please provide me with the steps to add a water mark of my name on my photos in LC? Thank you.

I just upgraded LrC on my Windows 10 PC to v15. This problem also occurred when I was running 14.3. I checked my PC, I have 80GB of memory free and 16GB of RAM. I have always had success with LrC and my catalogs. I back up to an external  HD. It has 1.1TB free. All of a sudden, my LrC stopped importing large batches of photos (15GB+ / 3100+ photos/videos). Files are being imported from my phone (with 20GB of free/unused storage). The phone is a Galaxy S22. Lots of files types: HIEC, JPG, RAW, etc. I have tried updating LrC to v15, I have tried disabling the GPU on my PC's device manager, and turned off "Use Graphics Processor" in LrC under Preferences. The same results: the import process proceeds to 90% then hangs... for HOURS. I checked the CPU, disk and memory usage (10/50/20% respectively, give or take).  I'm attaching what my LrC file folder looks like here. I ALWAYS backup the catalog when prompted when I close LrC. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am using LR6 on a PC and this morning I cannot open LR6 - I am getting the following message - "Lightroom cannot use the catalog named "Lightroom 6" as it is not writable and cannot be opened".  I have checked forums and checked that I have read and write permissions and I have also checked my LR folder to make sure that there is not a lrcat.lock file preventing the opening of LR.Any suggestions what to do next please?

@Rikk Flohr: Photography, The help page Lightroom Classic system requirements | earlier releases doesn't include LR 14.x. The requirements for 14.x can be retrieved from here:https://web.archive.org/web/20250116035059/https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/system-requirements.html

Hey all, I have just tried deleting some files off my Mac and keep getting this pop up saying about Volume does not support trash.Working perfectly few days ago where it would put them in the trash bin on my Mac,I know I probably won't want them photos anyway but I don't understand the change in behaviour. Any ideas? I am running the latest version of OSX and LRC.

No compatible versión 15,0 de Ligthroom  con iMac de 2017. Nos obligan a cambiar el ordenador si queremos la última  actualización?Solicita sistema operativo Sonoma  pero Apple no actualiza este sistema a los iMac del 2017. 

Using LrC 15.0, PS 27.0 and CR 18.0, Mac OS 15.6.1 - While working with an image of my niece, when I hit the "Update Settings" icon (to the right of "Masking" in the Development module, it mentions under the "Remove" section that "New variations will be generated". Upon hitting "Update All", my niece's face is replaced with an unknown person/variation. I have repeated this behavior multiple times - different face each time. 

We use the Lightroom Piwigo-PlugIn from Vladimir Vinogradsky.Unfortunately the website http://alloyphoto.com/ is down and with LR9 the PlugIn is without value.Does anyone have another idea for a PIWOGO export from Lightroom?

My computer crashed, and I had to reinstall Lightroom 6.0, but it gets to the adobe id sign in required screen and won't let me pass that screen despite actually signing in.  I tried to get an agent online to help, but they seem unwilling because the product is no longer supported.  I am not asking for any updates to this product.  I still physically have the CD and I haven't upgraded my windows.  I should be able to reinstall a product I physically purchased.  Please advise whether there are other ways to activate the product.  Thank you

How do I stop the following from happening? select multiple photos in a collection drag the photos to an actual folder in the left sidebar in the current view of the collection, all of the photos I had selected are deselected except the first one I want all of the photos I had selected to stay selected after I drag them to a folder in the left sidebar. That's how it used to work in LR 5.

I’d like to ask why my Lightroom Classic won’t open. The system check shows no compatibility issues, but the application still won’t launch. Also, my Creative Cloud desktop app won’t open either — it automatically crashes right after starting. Has anyone found a solution to this problem?

On the run I have to ftp a lot of my pictures directly from the camera. Is there a way of keeping track of this when files are later on imported in Lightroom? Is there some kind of "flag" attached to the ftp-transferred files that Lightroom reads and can show me - or eg. be included in a search? Regards,Bmj

Built a new computer running Windows 11 Pro with Intel Ultra 9 285k chip 64GB ram and Nvidia RTX5070Ti 16GB; 2TB C drive, 2TB D drive.  I am getting repeated screen freezes in LRC and PS beta and have to reboot to restore.  Graphics Card and all software is up to date.  I disabled the Windows compatability group as suggested.  Still having issues.  If you have had these issues and resolved them, I need some suggestions please.

Es gibt keine Funktion: Maske XY subtrahieren.Hoffe, das ist verständlich und jmd. hat eine Idee.Gruß, Andreas 

With the split between XMP and ACR sidcar files in Lightroom 15, it creates an extreme mess for people that have to rename files after the fact and don't use catalogs. I prefer to just keep my photos in their own directories, then just move them to a NAS for storage since I won't need them at all anytime soon, so there is no need to use the lightroom catalog.   Since I don't use AI in every photo, the few that I do now have an extra sidecar file. When I batch rename all the XMP and RAW files after i'm done editing, now the issue is the few ACR files that are made, and figuring out where do they actually belong since I can't batch rename and include them (I use an external batch rename program to just drag and drop all the files and have it auto number and rename all the files).   So now I have to copy the photos with ACR files in a separate directory, batch rename everything and then manually go through the thumbnails to see which photo matches up and the new name I should re

Ich habe bei meinen nach Jahren benannten Ordnern zwei Jahrgänge (2018 und 2019) mit jeweils ca. 2000 Bildern, bei denen die Personenerkennung nicht funktioniert. In den Ordnern davor und danach geht das ohne Probleme. Hat jemand eine Idee woran das liegen könnte?

 Everytime I try and use a mask lightroom classic is crashing on my MacBook M4 Pro.  Is anyone else having this problem?
