I understand your frustration, but you don't give us detailed informations about your environment and your issue.

What you're exact trying to do?

Do you get an error message? If yes, please post the message3 word-by-word.

What do you mean with "crashed my PC"? Lightroom don't crashes normally the whole PC. In this case it seems that ther could be a faulty hardware (like RMA module) or older or incompatible device driver.

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. If you have a NVidia graphic card installed, make sure that you are using the recent Studio version of the driver, not the Game Ready version.

Please provide a copy of your 'System Info'. This can be get from the LrC Help > System Info menu item. There's a copy button in the System Info dialog. Press this button and paste the info into your next forum post.

What you can try is to reset the preferences of Lightroom Classic:  How to reset Lightroom Classic preferences (adobe.com)

It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:
