Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. 

Which version of Lightroom and Windows are you using? Are you using Lightroom Classic? Does the app crash while performing a specific task? Could you please share the system info of Lightroom from Help > System info > Copy & paste into a text document > upload to Creative Cloud files (https://assets.adobe.com/files) and share with us?

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far?

 

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

 

Thanks

Ranjisha

Thanks for the info,

You can try resetting Lightroom's preferences using the steps mentioned here (manual method): https://adobe.ly/2JSym5e.

Please back up your presets prior to resetting the preferences. Let us know how it goes.
