Hi there,

Sorry that Lightroom crashes when you attempt to import images.

Which version of Lightroom are you using?  In Lightroom, you can check that by going to Help > System Info.

What is the Source of your import and Destination set in Lightroom? See the below image for reference:

Thanks,

Akash
