LRC Star Rating Problem

When editing only 3 star select photos in a large group, I sometimes see photos I demote to 2 stars. Even though 3 star filtering is on in Develop mode, the 2 star photos remain in the 3 star filtered group and end up getting exported. This only happens after the editing process, not in Library mode.

The only way to fix this problem so far has been to remember that this occurs every time, turn off the star filtering to include every photo, then reinstate the 3 star filter. Only then do the 2 star photos go away from the group. This has been happening for several months now.

Up in the menu, the part about the various filters, make sure all are reset, then try the star filter again.

If GoldingD's suggestion doesn't help, try deleting the Helper.lrdata folder:

a) Do Catalog Settings > General > Show to open Finder / File Explorer on the current catalog folder.
b) Exit LR.
c) In that folder, delete the folder "<catalog> Helper.lrdata".
d) Restart LR, and it will rebuild the folder.

The Helper.lrdata folder caches information about metadata, keywords, folders, collections, and other things to speed the performance of LR and it can sometimes get corrupted. In recent versions, LR has used it more heavily to improve the speed of displaying metadata, and there have been a fair number of bugs with it.

Still having the problem. Tried both fixes. Note the 3 star selection in the bottom right and the numerous 2 star pics still in the grid.
