EXTREMLY Slow / Freezing on "Import" Pressing

[#1]

So for the last few days I've been entirely unable to use Lightroom Classic.  I open it, head to my Library and click "Import" to get started.  And as soon as I do my mouse wheel starts the little blue spinning circle, and that's all she wrote for the next 5 minutes.  Eventually the box to Import opens, but it doesn't load my file structure and if I open task manager its listed as "Not Responding".  And it isn't like it is overwhelming my PC, my CPU is basically NOT being utilized during this (2% at the moment), and my Memory is sitting at 8GBs used out of 32GB (of which 1.3GB is Lightroom).  I can keep using my PC just fine because Lightroom just... gave up? I'm typing all of this now while Lightroom is "trying" in the background.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Lightoom to no effect.  Its exactly the same.  My PC has had zero issue with Lightroom until now.
