Hi there,

Sorry about the startup issue that you see when trying to launch Lightroom.

Could you please share the version of Lightroom (Help > About Lightroom) and the version of Windows on your computer?

What all troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? Have you tried resetting the preferences or reinstalling the application?

This started happening after the latest update of Lightroom?

Could you please try creating a new user account and let us know if it helps? https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4026923/windows-10-create-a-local-user-or-administrator-account

We're here to help, just need some more info.

Thanks,

Ranjisha
