Basically, when I go to copy settings, I notice the temperature spike and the fan go into high gear, before the app quits (no crash report) or the whole computer crashes.   Fans running, computer crashing, is a symptom of the computer overheating because of a cooling system failure somehwere.   I was editing without this issue, as recently as a couple of weeks ago.    More evidence that something has stopped working properly, and the obvious choice is the cooling system.   If you can open the computer case, make sure all fans are running properly. Vaccuum out the dust in the case. Vaccuum out the air vents in the case so they are not blocked by dust. Make sure all vents are not clocked by furniture or a wall.     ... View more

Use your operating system's search feature to search all folders on all drives for files whose name ends with .LRCAT (these are the catalog files)   Once you find those files, one of those may be the catalog file you were using. Double-click on each catalog to open it in Lightroom Classic until you find the catalog file you want. ... View more

The fact that this high end computer doesn't speed through your work indiates that something is interfering with LrC. It doesn't indicate you need an even better computer. However, determining the cause of slowness could is often difficult.   Some things to check (and I realize this is a small part of a very long list) Make sure you have the most recent Studio driver for your GPU. If you have a Game-Ready driver, uninstall that and install the most recent Studio driver. Make sure you anti-virus is not scanning the folder with the LrC catalog and not scanning the folder with your photos   ... View more

The GPU was first released to the public 9 years ago. It is a slow GPU by today's standards, and that's why it worked well for a few years but now it seems that the actions it needs to perform in LrC take longer and longer. As I said, over the years, LrC has been programmed to use the GPU a lot more to perform standard tasks, leading you to feel that LrC is getting slower. You need a newer GPU. ... View more

Not sure if my memory is correct, but I think 13.2 used a different catalog internal format than 13.3, so some research is needed. Yes it would make a big difference. I think someone (yes, I mean you @norbdam) should search the forum to see what solutions have been found. ... View more

Make sure you have installed the most up-to-date Studio driver for your GPU. (Game-ready drivers are not recommended for LrC)   Your GPU is 9 years old and this is a likely cause of the slowness you see, as newer versions of LrC are written to make more and more use of the GPU. It is unlikely a re-install of LrC will cause the desired improvement. ... View more

High temperatures indicate that the cooling system is doing a lot of work, and possibly some element of the cooling system has stopped working. The fact that it is a gaming PC with lots of power and temperature management doesn't help if some part of the cooling system has stopped working.   Check to make sure all fans are spinning, and the case is not clogged with dust and the vents are free of dust and the vents are not blocked by furniture or a wall or something else. ...

Lots of internet advice about blue screens, such as  https://www.solveyourtech.com/how-to-fix-blue-screen-windows-11-a-step-by-step-guide/   Why does my Windows 11 keep crashing with a Blue Screen? Blue screens often occur due to faulty hardware, outdated drivers, or system corruption. Checking these areas can usually resolve the issue.   Note that software (including Lightroom Classic and any other software) is not considered as a possible cause of blue screens. Note that the possible causes fit in with your description of the problem. The author of this advice has no connection to Adobe and probably is not a Lightroom Classic user, so has no bias for or against Adobe software. ... View more
