I moved cats today from one hard drive to another, didn't have any issues. Later I tried to open LRC and it keeps spinning the beach ball. I have tried deleting plist files and rebooting 3 times now. I have alos tried uninstalling LRC and re-installing LRC and same beach ball. I have tried removing hard drives associated with LRC to just open in clean space and still beach ball. Screenshot 2023-03-19 at 7.27.53 PM.png

Log into the MAC using a different account, typically the ADMIN account. Does LrC behave during this test?

I set up an additional account and LRC worked fine to open up. So what does that mean?

After many attempts and searches even setting up a new user and being frustrated having to reload presets and all my settings. I seem to have finally deleted the right thing and LRC now works again in my main user area with all of my needed additional assets. Thank you so much for reaching out to help!
