LR freezes when trying to save as preset

In dev. module I'm, applying some changes to a photo (for example lights, contrast etc.). When I want to save these changes as a preset (clicking the plus sign top left) LR freezes. I'm using Win 11 and LR Classic 14.4. Any idea what could be the cause?

Try if resetting the preferences fixes it. Corrupted preferences are known to cause all kinds of strange issues.
