Organizer stops working

[boogboog2]

While working on an image the Organizer periodically stops working.  I can get it to come back, but it disrupts the flow of work.

Elements 12

[Anwesha Dev Chaudhary]

Please try out following steps and see if it helps:

1. Launch Elements Organizer while keeping the Shift key pressed to open the Catalog Manager.
2. In the Catalog Manager dialog, click New to create a catalog. Provide a name for the catalog, and then click OK.
3. Launch the Preferences dialog (Ctrl/Cmd + K).
4. In the Preferences dialog:
   • In the Media Analysis tab, deselect all checkboxes.
   • In the Files tab, deselect the checkboxes:
     --Automatically Search for and Reconnect Missing Files
     --Automatically Generate Thumbnails for Video Files
5. Start Elements Organizer.
6. If Organizer launches without any issues, switch back to your older catalog.

Thanks,
