resulting DNG from enhance (AI denoise) not showing up as stacked overlay

[Kirk37415900j33m]

I am using Lightroom version 7.2 on a Windows 11 PC (system info below) using Fujifilm XT-4 RAF (raw) files.

I have mostly had success using the AI denoise function, creating a stack. However, with some files, the system goes through its 5-7 minutes denoise operation, but no denoised DNG is stacked on the original. I've discovered that I can go into a deeply buried Windows subdirectory "C:\Users\..\AppData\Local\Adobe\Lightroom CC\Data\03403ce712c14965bb82d7e8c980ce33\originals\" and find the denoised DNG file that was created, but it never shows up in Lightroom, even after waiting a day or so. Any ideas on what is going on or how to get the denoised DNG to stack?

Thanks

Although the information here is incomplete, I suspect your video card does not meet our minimum specifications.  
Please see: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/system-requirements.html and verify your card meets the specifications. 

If it does, you likely need to verify you are up-to-date on your video driver.

Thanks. It does appear that my graphics card has only 1 GB VRAM. All other minimum specs are met. But does this explain why AI Denoise usually works quite well, even on RAW files of same size. I'm attaching an example of jpegs exported before and after AI denoise. Occasionally, however, Lightoom does not load the de-noised DNG (which I can find on my local drive) as a stack over the original RAW in Lightroom? I'd prefer not to spend a bunch of money on a new computer meeting the recommended specs only to find the same issue recurs with that.

Again, thanks for response.

@ksmch  You are in the wrong forum. This is Lightroom Desktop - currently 8.0. You need to post in Lightroom Classic - Thanks!
