AI Denoise not working Lightroom Classic

Report · Oct 07, 2023

First time I wanted to try Denoise, it wouldn't work as is was trying to save with the same filename.

Seems to be the case as I got a dialog box with "Save As" and then offered to save as .TXT

Restarted LR and was able to Denoise one picture.

Ended up with a similar error when trying another picture (after the second LR restart).

This time, with an additional error message about the GPU.

Anyone with insight into this issue?

Note that it did work well for one time (and pretty quickly too).

One point and a inquiry

1. Looking at both the LrC System Info and the WIN 11 System info the following oddity appears:

Operating system: Windows 10 - Home Premium Edition
Version: 10.0.22621

vs

OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 Home
Version 10.0.22621 Build 22621
Other OS Description Not Available
OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation

I suspect this is just an annoyancw caused by early Window 11 reporting, and does not actually cause problems. And yes this is Windows 11. Mind you one update is available, version 23H2 build 22631

2. Looking at that Windows 11 system info, I notice the following:

BaseBoard Manufacturer ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
BaseBoard Product PRIME Z390-P
BaseBoard Version Rev X.0x
Platform Role Desktop

So, this computer appears to be a desktop, either a brand name PC or a self built unit. Containing a ASUS Prime Z390-P Motherboard. Perhaps this one:

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/PRIME_Z390-P/E15011_PRIME_Z390-P_UM_v3_web.pdf?model=P...

Question is make/model of computer.

Oh and, as I see their appears to be two slots that could support GPU's do you have just the norma; one GPU card plugged in?

Hello @GoldingD,

1. My windows 11 machine has been updated once (or twice) since October. It is up to date.
2. It is indeed an ASUS Prime Z390-P Motherboard based tower machine (from a local shop). BIOS 3006 is also up to date (not that it would change anything for LrC). NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Is the video card in use as shown in my initial post.

Not a question I would normally ask, as LrC is such a resource hog compared to PS. And the ACR for PS is a plug-in instead of burnt in the program code in LrC, and I suspect PS has an easier time with the process, and a PS and a LrC DeNoise DNG may not equivalent. but.

Do you have the same problem if you try Enhance (AI DeNoise) in PS. Not a heavy PS user, so some lack of knowledge, apparently right click on an image and select Enhance.

Another item to look at, this also in PS (yes I know issue is LrC, but just in case)

See this link:

Try the GPU Compatibility Check, see if an error pops up.

Oh and read the link, see if anything else gives a hint.

Another inquiry.

NVIDIA, so have you ever modified any settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel (NVIDIA Settings) ? If so, could a setting have been incorrect. If you have never brought up the NVIDIA control panel, then it is unlikely something is wrong in one of the settings (that would be at default) Some performance improvements can be had via the NVIDIA Control panel, their are videos on the web on that. But probably best left to later, after the LrC behaves.

One way to access is down in the Windows task bar near far right, that up mark (show hidden icons)

or via Apps

It will look something like this

and in reference to GeForce Experienceand NVIDIA settings, see:
