Hi guys
Thank you for reading my post.
I'm using LR Classic V: 14.0.1
When I hit F on my keyboard to view an image in full screen view...I get a black screen. The metadata for the image appears breifly but nothing else just a black screen.
If I close LR and re-open everything is normal ? But the black screen re appears again some time later.
Is this a bug ? Or have I caught something in error ?
Anyone else see this ?
Try is to switch off the GPU support from the Lightroom preferences and check if that helps to fix the issue. Go to Lightroom > Preferences > Performance tab > Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" > Restart Lightroom.

Another step is to try to reset the Lightroom preferences.

Is your system up-to-date? Do you have installed all recent updates and patches for the operating system and the device drivers, especially the graphic driver. Please make also sure that you have installed the Studio version and not the Game Ready version of your NVidia driver.
