Question

Lightroom Classic not exporting more than 2 photos at a time

I am an avid LR Classic User.  I edit raw images and export to original folder into a sub folder Edited.  Recently, Lightroom will not export more than 1-2 photos at a time.  I've checked multiple catalogs and experimented with each as well as new destination folders.  I work off of an external hard drive, and have tried to store on desktop to no avail.  Both my computer and external drive have plenty of storage between 1/3 to 1/2 free space. No error box ever pops up.  Just in the status window it shows that it wants to export but never processes any further.  I've waited hours and hours and still no progress.

  • What MAOS version? (14.1.2)
  • What LrC version? (13.1)

Can you post a screenshot of your export dialog

example:

 

Can you post a screenshot of your Folders panel in the Library module, with at least the folder the original is in and the subfolder the exports go into shown, And ideally with the parent folder and drive shown.

example:

 

(In authors reply as an attachment)

 

And just in case, a copy of your system info as LrC reports it /Help/System Info/, With the info from first line down to just pass plugin info shown.

Typically words like Current, most recent, and updated, are treated with disdain in this community That is because their are too many instances with members after being prodded to actually provide version numbers, sys info, etc, come back with things like v6.14 (4 years after sunset) , etc.

 

From the Community Guidance (Community How-To Guide - Tips & Best Practices ) :
