P: TIFF file reloads after each Develop edit, potential data loss

LR6 (CC), edit TIF file (imported from PS or NIK). Image "reloads" after almost every Develop module edit. In some cases, all previous Develop module settings are lost, and the image reverts to it's original appearance. Even though the previous Develop module edits are still shown on the History panel - they no longer have any effect. Result - total loss of all user edits.

Workaround: disable "Automatically write changes to XMP" in catalog settings. This is what appears to trigger the constant "reloads".

Note this does not appear to be related to GPU - the problem occurs exactly the same whether GPU is enabled or disabled. Also note, the problem does NOT occur when editing RAW files. So far, it appears to occur only with TIF files.

No it is not solved. I just took a picture from lightroom to photoshop and back again. Every adjustment I make to the tiff file in lightroom (curves, grain, clarity, anything) causes the image to reload, same as before.

FIX THIS, ADOBE.

The problem is solved after the update!

(I tried with Silver Efex Pro 2 and HDR Efex Pro 2).

Thanks for the support.

Joseph, go to Help and "Check for Updates" if using Windows and you are using a standalone version of LR. If using Adobe Cloud then the Cloud app should prompt you to update automatically. Mine did anyway.

If it's fixed we can safely recheck the "auto write to xmp" box I guess

Where do you find theLR6.1 upgrade?

Another possible workaround the edit reloading issue: Unchecking the "always write to xmp" in lr "catalogue Settings"may cause metadata loss if catalogue gets corrupted.So with that box unchecked, the reloading stops,so to save data, select all images edited and go to Metadata,scroll down and choose "save metadata to files", since metadata is not being saved toXMP.
