LrC hangs and freezes under Win 11

That black rectangle behind the Develop Loupe Info, if you walk away for awhile, does it eventually go away. s if LrC has slowed down for some reason.

The operation is not typical, rather the error appears after 5-10 minutes.

A statement like that, often leads members to ask if your computer is overheating. LrC is a very resource intensive app, some say a resource pig. Please do not compare to say PS, LrC vs PS in use of resources is a no go, PS is mild in resource use compared to LrC.

So, does this computer have dust bunnies, inlets, outlets, around UPS inlet as well, and inside (I think you have a desktop based on that GPU) around the CPU (if Fan cooled), and the GPU (the fans)

Ans any indication of a overheat for the CPU or the GPU?

So, the Develop Loupe Overlay info is showing up in a black rectangle, that obscures much info and the top menu.

This sounds familiar, as in brought up in this community before. Also, the color (black) may  be different for some (gray, white, etc)

I do not suppose that simply using the keyboard shortcut, in this case lower case i, changes the overlay???

Having trouble searching for a solution, a previous discussion, in the community. I would suspect that a reset of the preference file is called for.

Some of the discussions I have found have referred to:

• OS, but Windows 11, is just fine. That is not it
• GPU, but yours is fantastic, That is not it
• GPU driver, but yours is fairly new, perhaps a few months old. P.S. a new one has been released, three days ago, recommend the Studio version.
• In LrC preferences, turn of the use of the GPU, this is typically a test to see if the GPU is the issue, Despite the above you might want to try that.
• Simply cycling thru overlays, but why would that black rectangle appear, not on mine.

Please tell us the version NUMBER of your Lightroom Classic. Please tell us the make and model and driver version NUMBER of your GPU.

Are there specific actions in Lightroom Classic that seem to "cause" the slowness and black bar? Can you show us a screen capture of this black bar (use the "Insert photos" icon; do not attach files)?

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
