Upgrade to 14.2 Catalog corrupts instantly

Auto upgraded to 14.2, the catalog has instantly corrupted. Was working fine the day before.

The corruption shows itself by not showing the export dialog in develop. The only way to bring up the export dialog is to switch to another module (in this case Web) and the dialog appears.

It seems that no dialog boxes will open up in develop mode. If you try to use AI noise reduction the dialog doesn't appear aunless you jump to a differnt module.

This happened before, I rolled back to an earlier catalog backup, lost a heap of work whcih had to get redone, the dialog appeared again. I switched to daily catalog backup and it just corrupted again after the program updated itself to 14.2.

So whats the go? Why does it keep doing that? I'm sure someone is going to tell me its my computer blah blah blah....its not. Google it, others are having the same problem
