Lightroom 13 constantly freezing in Develop module

Lightroom Classic 13.2 / Camera RAW 16.2 / Windows 11 / i7 14700 / RTX 4060 TI 16 Gb / 32 Gb RAM / SSD

 

Brand new PC (2 weeks old), fresh install of everything, drivers fully up to date.

 

LRC is freezing in the Develop module.  By that, I mean the images are visible and I can switch between modules. However when I try to use the develop sliders, they move but the changes are not reflected in the current image.  My only option is to restart LRC.

 

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Windows Update will be way out of date.

 

Go directly to Nvidia and download the latest studio driver for the 4060 Ti (not the game ready driver).

 

When you install it, choose custom install and check "clean install". This removes all traces of the old driver. Uncheck the extra components in the driver package called GeForce Experience and PhysX. You don't need them and they have been known to cause problems.

By drivers fully up to date, do you include the Motherboard drivers in that? Specifically the chip set drivers?

 

Also by that, do you mean according to Windows Update, or per the motherboards (or computers) manufacture?

 

I ask because I had that exact issue, that is until I updated my chip set drivers via ASUS for my MB.

Windows Update - do you think they don't have the latest drivers?

I think this is irrelevant, companies release new drivers on a different schedule than Windows Update. Also, a driver can be corrupted and so re-installing is worth a try.

As an experiment, turn off the GPU acceleration in LRC. Preferences->Performance->Set Use Graphics Processor to OFF. Does that make a difference?

Ta - I could (and I will try) but that rather defeats the point of installing a brand new GPU to be able to use all the latest LRC tools.... which is a little bit annoying if that proves to be the problem.

That doesn't mean you have to use it forever without the GPU. It is an experiment designed for us to learn something. If it is a problem caused by the GPU, it may mean that the card or driver is defective.
