LrC crashes when idle for appr. one hour
My LrC works fine when I use it. I have my photos on an external drive.
But if I leave LrC open and go away from the laptop for a while it crashes (after about one hour, I think). Every time! Then, when I come back I get the message that an error has occured and that LrC needs to quit. When restarting it does a check, finds no problems and I can resume work.
However, when restarting it does not pick up from where I was when the problem occurred. Instead it starts in the place I was last time I shut down the program in the normal way (Ctrl+Q).
I have submitted the error msg to Adobe innumerous times, but no reaction from them.
I suspect the problem has something to do with my external drive, which is protected by BitLocker. In the beginning (when the laptop was new) BitLocker would shut the disk down after some time, which of course had consequences for LrC, as it no longer had access to the photos. I then changed the settings of BitLocker so that it trusts this disk in this laptop. After that BitLocker does not shut down this disk.
But LrC still crashes. I suspect that there is a connection, but am unable to find a way to deal with it.
Has anyone faced this extremely annoying anomaly?
I have the latest version of LrC (currently 14.5.1) and run Windows11 Home, build 10.0.26100 build 26100. The disk is a G-TECH ArmorATD SCSI device 4.5 TB
