Lightroom freezes every 3 seconds

Question

So I have the weirdest problem: Lightroom Creative Cloud 9.3.1 freezes every 3-5 seconds, for like maybe 3 seconds. Basically after every click, but not directly after one. It also freezes if I don’t do anything. it’s basically unusable.

I use Windows 11 (AMD Ryzen 9, GTX 1660, 64 GB RAM, only SSD and M2 Harddrives), on my older PC it works just fine. I switched to Win 11 in January, but I think I witnessed that problem in December on the same machine, running with Win 10 already

I use Premiere, After Effects, Illustrator and Photoshop all the time - No trouble at all. No crashes, no performance problems.

Cloud synchronization is turned off.

No change if I turn off GPU-usage or not. (GPU-Memory is almost full though)

I disabled one of my two monitors. Didn’t do anything.

Re-Install didn’t do anything.

Drivers are up to date.

I’m out of options. Even ChatGPT is like “What??” Can anybody help me?

Hi, thanks for reaching out, and we're sorry about the trouble.

When you reinstalled the application, did you also remove the app's preferences? If not, try resetting Lightroom's preferences by launching the app while holding down the Shift + Alt keys.

Let us know if it makes a difference!

Thanks,

Nikunj
