Low Photo Quality

[jat Media]

When I am viewing my photos in the library and zoom in the quality is really low and pixelated. I shoot in raw on the Sony a6400 so I highly doubt it's not the camera. when I look at the photos in windows photo viewer the quality is fine, but in lightroom it seems to be terrible. I'm not sure if this is a bug or just user error 

Help would be great. Thanks

Are you using embedded previews, and are the actual photos in the LrC catalog listed as missing?

Oh, and is this LrC v 13.0.1 or way back

Lightroom, or Lightroom Classic? What version NUMBER? (We need the version NUMBER and not words like "latest" or "up-to-date")

Zoom in to what magnification/zoom ratio? What size in pixels is the image according to LrC? (Do not tell me megabytes). Are you using Smart Previews?

Can you show us a screen capture of the entire Lightroom Classic screen showing this terrible image quality? Use the "Insert Photos" icon; do not attach files.
