Lightrom has encountered problems reading this photo

Question

I recently merged a work project catalog into my master catalog. Now that I went to look at those photos in my master catalog, I get an error message saying there was a problem reading this photo and I can't make adjustments. This error message only shows on the photos I have edited and used the automatic denoise. I'm afraid I've done something irreversible with these photos. I also upgraded lightroom classic just before the migration so the project catalog was updated when importing the photos.

Hi @Akseli Mäkynen, Thanks for the detailed description. Let’s clarify a few things so we can point you in the right direction.•Are you seeing the same issue described in this thread?If so, please let me know, and I can merge your post there, so you’ll automatically receive updates as the issue progresses. If this is not the same issue, please share:•A screenshot of the exact error message shown in Lightroom•The Lightroom Classic version you upgraded from and to just before the catalog merge To help narrow this down further, please also test:1. Does the photo become editable again if you remove the edits or temporarily remove the XMP sidecar (if present)?2. If yes:•Copy & paste settings excluding Details / Denoise•Then reapply Denoise again and check whether the issue disappears Looking forward to your update. Best regards,Anshul Saini
