    Hey, @Bob26960501aa24. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll need more information about your workflow to help you.

     

    Please share the system info from Lightroom Help > System info > Copy & paste into a text document > upload & attach here. Additionally, a video or screenshots showcasing the error/behavior would help.

     

    Awaiting hearing from you. Thanks!

    Thanks for the details, @Bob26960501aa24. There are a few things you can try:

    1 - Update to Lightroom v9.5 available now. If the update does not show up in the Windows App Store, you can use the Creative Cloud desktop app to update: https://adobe.ly/4xxAbug


    2 - The Graphics drivers for Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics (32.0.101.7084) are from around January. Please use Intel's auto-detect program instead of the Windows Update channel, which tends to supply dated drivers that are generally stable.


    Let me knwo hwo it goes.
    Thanks!
