Question

Lightroom Classic crashes immediately on launch. Previously worked fine.

HI All,

My Lightroom Classic has suddenly strated to crash immediately on launch. Each time an error report pops up, which has apparently gone to Apple, but there are no solutions forthcoming. There has been no change by closing the computer down and restarting.

All apps are fully up to date, and the specs of my machine are Apple M2 Pro, 16GB memory, running Ventura 13.6.1

Will this be an uninstall - reinstall thing, or are there other possibilities?
Thanks in advance,

Pete

Is this the same problem?

And does the temporary solution work?

Or better, does the fix stated by the Adobe   @Rikk Flohr: Photography Employee work?

Thank you - looks very similar, if not the same - I'll try the fixes as suggested above. 

Cheers,

Hi,

This is the first page of the error message which comes up immediately on pressing "open"

Does that help at all?

So you received an Apple report, did you also receive an Adobe Crash report?
