Synchronizing Metadata – Failure and Error Message

Hello, on LR Classic 13.5.1. on Win 10 I try to "Synchronize Metadata" – I've done this 10000 times already, also in the last few days. Just as of today, I can do it only two, three times. After that, when I click "Synchronize" in the dialog box "Synchronize Metadata", I get a weird error message. It starts with (translated by me), "an internal error occurred". (See pic attached.)

 

I synchronize to about 1 to 10 JPGs at a time – but the number of pics makes no difference; also synchronizing to one pic only doesn't help. LR is set to "Write XMP immediately" (not just into database). The catalog is in the default folder location. The photos folder (all pics are in 1 folder and i work from the Folder panel) has 800 pics, but again, I synchronize (try to synchronize) only 1 – 10 at a time. The folder content is fully synchronized (i.e. LR has the correct info about each file).

 

The only way to get the function back is to re-start LR. Then, 2 or 3 metadata-synchronizations go as expected. After that, it's back to the error message.

Hello, now after restarting the whole computer - and not just Lightroom Classic - the problem is still going on. Only i had more successful tries before it failed for the first time.
