My previous version of Lr was working perfectly. I upgraded to the new Lr v10 and converted my Catalog. Now the Import function won't work. On selecting Import, the window opens, displays "Loading..." and hangs.
Does anyone have a fix for this? Does Adobe even care?!

(I've reomoved a lot of stuff that didn't seem relevant)
I have to say ... rather shocked and disappointed to discover that Adobe doesn't have a proper HelpDesk to deal with user problems. After a decade of using their products, this is pushing me toward other applications that are more reliable and provide proper support.

So NVIDIA GPU driver v441.08. Per NVIDIA website, current is v456.71
Use your copy of NVIDIA GeForce Experience to update it, select custom install method as to cause a clean install.
Adobe often list updating GOU drivers as a possable solution.

Also, create a new catalog. Test that. Any difference?

Hi, NZ,
I saw exactly the same symptom. Based upon what I saw in Windows Task Manager, Lightroom was acting on the catalogue in some way. After forcing the program to end mor ethan once and then rebooting my computer, I finally decided to let the program continue on its own until I saw that it had completed whatever it was doing. I worked on other things.
After some time, which I did not measure, Lightroom did advance to another screen. Then the import worked. I have tried two imports since then and they both worked. So my guess is that some bug in the software causes Lightroom to spend a very large amount of time to "do something" to my 13,000+ photo catalog.
Of course I don't know if this will work for your situation, but I recommend giving it a try.
