Hi, Everytime I launch LR Classic, it freezes. I have to click on another window, then LR show "does not answer" for few seconds and start. I have already try to change the langage as mentioned in other posts.

If you could help me.

Thanks

I think what you are seeing is basically normal for the newer versions of LrC.

 

When I double click the desktop icon I have for LRc classic the program takes about 3 seconds to initially open (Show on my screen) then just sits there for about another 2-4 seconds for the grid view to come up (or the Loupe view to show a picture) and then sits for about another 8-12 second (possibly longer) to become Active to the point I can click on something in the interface and have the program react to that click.

 

It has been like that since about LrC 7 or 8.

 

If I open Lr version 5 (which I still have installed on my system) that starts nearly immediately and or with very little delay.

Thanks Just Shoot Me, but I think I have more problem because when I open LR and after waiting 5-6s to initially open, the grid appear then nothing happens until I click somewhere and I'm waiting 8-10s to become active.

I have tried this https://helpx.adobe.com/fr/lightroom-classic/kb/crash-at-launch-windows-language-settings.html but nothing has changed.

I think Lightroom Classic on Windows generally takes a while to start. I have to wait about 15 seconds (didn't time it) before I can do anything in Lightroom Classic, and it has always been like this, it is not something new in version 9.4.
