For some reason my Lightroom Classic wont launch. It stated earlier in Photoshop that my storage was nearly full so i thought this may have had something to do with it. I tried to originally download about 700 images, it got to about 300 band wouldnt do anymore. Ive deleted lots of GB's from my internal hardrive etc and it still just opens and closes. Can anybody help ? Ive deleted the App, rebooted my computer and it still does the same.

    The 50GB was just a loose guideline. Try the solution I linked to above.

    Assuming you've got at least 50 GB of free disk space on Macintosh HD, try this solution from Adobe employee Smit K:

      Do you mean that you were trying to import 700 images to Lightroom?

      How much free space do you have on your hard drive?

      Thanks Per, yes sorry i meant importing. As i said it got to 300 and just stopped in its tracks. Ive got about 48gb free at the moment, however the other thing is ive just bought a Sony a7iv which is 33mp compared with my a7iii which was 24mp so even bigger files when i'm editing
