Hi,
I have a big problem with LR Classic on Windows. I turn it on and a wheel turns and says to me: LR does not respond. I have had this problem at least 15 times and no one has ever been able to help me. The links you give me are of no use to me. What should I do ? I am a photographer and I need my software every day. I tried all the means I had at my disposal in your help centers but nothing helped. After 2 or 3 days LR works again. But this problem appears when I need it most. I am not the only one with this problem. It would be good if Adobe did a correct update to avoid this kind of very recurring bug. Waiting for a good response. Regards. Catherine.

Hi Catherine,
Maybe you could give us more information on your configuration? What is your computer OS and version? How much memory do you have? Are you using a hard disk or a solid-state disk for your photos and/or database?
Is the non-responsive at the start-up or during the work? Does it happen when you change the modules? Does it happen when you change the picture?

The first thing that you should try is to switch off the GPU support from the Lightroom preferences and check if that helps to fix the issue.
Go to Lightroom > Preferences > Performance tab > Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" > Restart Lightroom.

If Lightroom doesn't start correctly the please see "Solution 2" in the document behind the second link.

Another step is to try to reset the Lightroom preferences.
