Question

Green/yellow noise shows up when I run denoise - except on a few small square areas of the photos.

I'm not sure what is happening. I've tried to run denoise on a few photos, they all turn out like this. That one little square that isn't green still changes if I use other editing sliders. It's like the denoise worked on a couple areas and turned everything else into green disco snow.

I'm on windows, using Lightroom 9.2, x64

Things I have tried:

Windows is up to date

GPU Drivers are up to date

Have restarted Lightroom

Exporting the photo retains the green, so it's not just a visual glitch

Happens with multiple photos

    Thanks for sharing the information and we’re sorry about the delay in responding to you! 

    Try disabling the GPU from Lightroom by going to Preferences, then Performance. Once done, relaunch the app and let us know how it goes. 

     

    Thanks,
