preset rendering issue

I had the free trial version and it worked perfectly. now that i have the paid version, the presets just keep rendering and rendering with no way to stop it unless i exit the program, which in return, undoes all of the editing i did before hand.

this is on my pc. i don't use my phone for editing.

Hi @kirky07, welcome to the community!
Could you let us know which version of Lightroom you’re using? Are you on Lightroom Classic (LrC icon) or Lightroom (Lr icon), and what numbered version? Does this happen with every preset or just a specific one? If possible, please share a screenshot or a short recording of the issue.
As a first step, it can often help to reset the preferences:
