How can i deactivate the automatic creation of virtual copies?

[Morris Schittler]

Every time i click on an image in Lightroom classic 9.3 (newest version) it automatically creates a virtual copie of the image.(I think they call it proof copie) How can i turn that off ? 

Thanks for Help!

You probably hit the S key to turn soft proofing ON.  Either hit S again in Develop Loupe View or click the button on the toolbar if you have the button set to show up.

I suspect your preference file may be corrupt as Lightroom Classic doesn't auto create VCs when an image is clicked. To reset the preference file, follow instructions for Method 1 in linked document https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/setting-preferences-lightroom.html

I think it will Auto Create a Proof Copy if you have the Soft Proof button checked and do and edit if you have ever checked the "Dont Show Again" in the following dialog.  I didnt want to try to check the Dont Show Again as I always want the dialog to show.
