Bugs should only be reported for the latest or current version of Lightroom Classic. If you believe you have a bug it must be verified on the latest version of Classic. New bug reports will not be accepted for older versions of the software.
If you believe you have encountered a bug, it is important to search the existing bugs to see if your issue, and a possible solution or workaround has already been reported. If so, please add to that thread. If not, it may be prudent to start a new thread.
>90% of bugs reported are not actually bugs. Before starting a new thread, please read: P: Do I post in Discussions or Bugs?
When logging a new bug report, it's helpful for the Lightroom Classic team if the information in the report includes steps to reproduce the bug experience. Once we can reproduce an issue, then we can start to investigate a fix.
Note:
If after a bit of troubleshooting we find that the bug report is in-fact not a product bug, the bug report will be moved out of Bugs and over to Discussions.
Do not use the word "bug" in the subject line!
Please do not mix multiple bug reports in a single post!
ETAs for bug fixes are not announced prior to release.
Use the below template as a guide for posting the most meaningful bug reports for the team.

* Optional, but useful: Upload a Test file (can be shared through CC files or other third-party storage), screenshot, video or gif file capturing the issue
Don't be surprised if your bug report is moved to discussions. The bug forum is for bonafide bugs that have been entered into Adobe's bug tracking system. Until a bug report is qualified, it may remain in discussions.
Note: ETAs for any bug fixes are not available in advance. The primary thread for each bug will be updated when a fix is released.
