Anyone know how long it takes for the program to start generating auto creations? I've had my photos imported for about 5 days and still nothing. I'm assuming its working in the background and is taking a while since I have over 200K photos, but wanted to see if anyone else has had any auto creations generated yet.
Thanks
Hang in there. With a catalog your size, it can take many days for the analysis to take place, particularly if you have a lot of video files included. When you say "5 days" since you imported the photos, has your computer been on 24 hours a day? And was this an import to a new catalog or a conversion of an old one? If the former, then you will also be having face recognition and smart tagging using up resources.
Unfortunately, Adobe has not included a status bar for the Auto Creation analysis

It takes that long even for 56 (not thousand, but just 56) photos that I've put in my organizer?

My catalog is getting on for 60k images and videos
Auto-creations is switched on in Elements 2020, and has been several months
Several continuous days of PC running E2020 autocreations, and nothing else
No auto-creations! PC Task Manager shows autocreations running in the background, but using small memory and processor resources. How many continuous hours might be reasonable to see some autocreations results
