Unable to create albums after upgrade last week, 12/16, Lightroom CC

After the upgrade I received last weekend, I no longer can create albums with the Lightroom CC.   I select images, click on new album, give the album a name and have checked, all selected photos to album and submit and no album is created.  I can do this with the web version but not on the desktop anymore.

    I have Adobe apps installed on two systems here. One is for real life live work. The other for testing. On the test system I just uninstalled Lr CC using the Creative Cloud app. I then Installed it and opened it.

    All my folders, albums and photos are still intact. Wanted to make sure before recommending >>

    You can try uninstalling/reinstalling Lr CC with no worries of losing images already in the cloud.

    May be worth a try for ya.

    I seriously doubt Lr is at fault. Your bits/bytes are exactly the same as everyone else. Adobe didn't install a version just for your system.

    What file format(s) are you trying to include (.nef, .cr2, jpg, tif, png, other)?

    Can you provide a screen shot of the Create Album dialog with the Name filled in?

    Uninstalled and reinstalled - turned off security during that because the last time this happened i needed to that.  still no go and I have a broken desktop app and no customer support, very frustrating

    Try closing Lr

    Shut down your computer (not restart)

    Start computer

    Run Lightroom

    That works just enough % of the time to make it worth a try.

    I've tried this over several days - having shut-down my computer numerous times during these attempts with no luck - that isn't working
