Hi there,

We're sorry about the difficulty in your workflow due to images getting selected unintentionally in Lightroom CC. We're here to help.

Which version of Lightroom are you using? Do you have any other input devices connected (tablet or stylus pen)? Did you try reinstalling the application or re-logging into the application? If not done yet, try the following steps.

Clean install:

Close Lightroom
Restart the computer
Use the Adobe Creative Cloud App to uninstall Lightroom CC.
Restart the computer
Install Lightroom CC via the Creative Cloud App without launching any other programs.
Restart the computer

After this is complete, note
A Preference File will survive a Lightroom uninstall/reinstall.
Reset Procedure:

Close Lightroom.
Hold down [Alt/Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.
Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog.
Close Lightroom.
Restart Lightroom.

When Lightroom opens, files should be logged in to your Adobe ID (inherited from the Creative Cloud app). Once you launch and have the correct Adobe ID, any valid information stored on your drive will be restored, and information will begin to sync down from the cloud. Please back up your data before resetting the preferences to defaults.

Let us know how it goes.

Regards,

Ranjisha

Hello,

Thank you for your reply,

I am having this issue while using Lightroom Web from the browser, not the downloaded app,

I believe non of the above applys to my case.
