Welcome to the Lightroom Community.

 

Thanks for sharing the details & the screenshot; it helps.

 

Before we go further, log in to Lightroom Web (https://lightroom.adobe.com) & ensure all your images & edits are synced.

  1. Try opening Lightroom by right-clicking and selecting 'Run as Administrator' as the first step.

  2. If this does not help, try these steps:

Go to the following location

  • C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Lightroom CC
  • Press the Windows > Enter 'Run' > Type %localappdata%\Adobe\Lightroom CC

  • Rename the Data folder as 'Data.old' (add .old at the end)
  • Restart Lightroom.

 

Let me know how it goes,

Thanks!
