Hello,
my Lightroom classic is freezing last two days after every launch of the program.
Sometimes a few moments after launch, sometimes it let me to open some library and then it freezes. Occasionally it starts to work if I leave it like that for a few minutes, but than it freezes again after I do a few things.
I tried to :
It started really suddenly. No update last few days, no changes. All my other programs are working smoothly.
I am running on :
Windows 10 Home
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor 3.6 GHz
32 GB RAM
AMD Radeon RX 6600 8 GB
Thanks for advices.

The first thing that you should 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.
