Hello,
I Have a problem whit Lightroom 6.1.4 on windows 10
My part of my photos are on an external HDD.
When I plug it in and then start lightroom it crashes without an error.
When I start lightroom and without the external HDD it remains running
When I Start lightroom and then connect the External HDD it runs/ crashes ( not stable)

It may be that your LR 6 is trying to start in People view, which has been broken for a year now and often causes crashes. Try resetting LR's preferences, which will ensure that LR starts up in Library Grid view:

In the Windows Event Viewer, any critical events?
Have you run an inspection for hard drive errors?
Do you have a different USB port to plug into? One not sharing the same controller?
Do you have another external hard drive to copy the photos to, and test, would involve a folder location correction.

So per that event log, Facial Rec is the issue.

I guess you are actually running Lightroom 6.14 the latest and last update to Lr 6.
