LR Classic startet nicht mehr

Kann LR Classic seit dem Update vor einer Woche nicht mehr starten. Erhalte die Meldung, dass der Katalog beschädigt ist und die Reparatur scheitert.

Nutze Windows 10 und habe kein Katalog Backup.

Neuinstallation nützt auch nichts.

Wer kann mir, auch gegen Bezahlung, helfen ?

      From which LrC version to which version do you have updated?

      Check the folder in which the catalog is stored if there is a .lock file. If yes, delete this file and check if you can open the catalog.

      Create a new catalog and try a import from the old catalog.  

       

      My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 6 - Topaz Photo AI

      I have done all the steps of the trouble shooting guide

      1. Start while holding and select repair option - no success
      2. restore from a back of the catalog - Worked for a few days and then the issue reappeared
      3. Now created a new catalog and importing incrementally from a backup catalog

      So far so good but I miss presets.

      Is there a known issue with Lightroom CC 15 and synchro with cloud?

      I had the same problem twice this past 2 weeks after the upgrade. I had to reload from a backup catalog but even that led to a failure after 2 days. I am trying to import from a back catalog in chunks …
