Lightroom Classing 14.xx crashing too frequently
So in the last few months Lightroom has been crashing increasingly frequently on my Windows 11 system. I have tried everything that I could think of including reinstalling, cleaning up graphics drivers and reinstalling, moving cataolog to different disk, creating new catalogues, disabling GPU in Lightroom, Resetting Lightroom settings, but nothing worked.
Initially things started with LR crashing when importing relatively large number of images (from few hundred to few thousands) but lately they have very frequent, like crashing every few minutes.
The crashes happens
1. When lightroom has to build a number of thumbnails and previews. This is related to imports (though I have turned off preview generation) when thumbnails for imported images are generated, it also happnes when I navigate to a collection (smart or regular) where LR has to generate thumbnails from many folders on the disk.
2. Doing heavy edits.
3. Strangely even if I am doing nothing and Lightroom is just open with few hundred or thousand thumbnails in the selected folder/collection. it will quitely crash after several minutes of half hour or so.
Apparently there are two kind of crashes. One is where LR queitly crashes due to some software reason. The second is when multiple crashes cause an error in catalog and LR crashes due to that issue (it displays the message to that effect).
I have submitted crash reports whenever I had the option to do that. I saved system info in a file. It can be downloaded here.
Any help will be appreciated.
