Mit den wenigen Infos können wir dir nicht helfen.   Welches Betriebssystem und wleche Version von Photoshop nutzt du? Welche Fehlermeldung bekommst du? Bitte poste die Meldung hier wortwörtlich.   Hast du evt. Photoshop schon zweimal aktiviert und versuchst jetzt eine Neuinstallation zu aktivieren ohne eine der beiden alten Installationen deaktiviert zu haben?  In diesem Fall hast du leider Pech gehabt. Die Aktivierung und Deaktivierung ist noch möglich, aber ein Zurücksetzen des Aktivierungszählers funktioniert nicht mehr.   Wenn wir mehr Infos haben können wir vermutlich mehr sagen.   ...

I'm not a fan of cloud only using in Lightroom Classic. If you like to use the cloud you can use the synchronisation.  I have approx. 3 TB of images files and it makes no sense to store it in the cloud.  I think it should be left as it is.    ... View more

... I was reading that installing Photoshop and Lightroom on a drive other than the operating system can complicate things and maybe cause problems. Has anyone had any experience with this? Thank you.  By @JA430   I've Lightroom and Photoshop installed on two machines runniong on Windows. On one machine I've installed LR/PS on the same drive as the operationg system (drive C). On the other I've install it on drive D (a seperate drive).  On both machines I don't have any problems.   So I think you can install it as you want / as you need it. But one point you should remember: even if you install LR/PS on a separate drive, parts will also be installed on drive C.   ... View more

... Falls PS in Deutsch läuft, ist das "Ebenen"-Fenster um bis 1/3 breiter als in PS in Englisch. Auf meinem 27"-Bildschirm macht es etwa 2 cm aus, wenn ich als Fontgröße "sehr klein" wähle (siehe Anhang). Sonst ist der Unterschied noch größer. Auf meinem kleinen MacBook Air ist dieser Unterschied sogar 40% (!). Eine solche Platzverschwendung fällt negativ auf, und ist meiner Meinung nach völlig unnötig. Von Adobe erfuhr ich, dass dies kein "bug" sondern ein "bekannter Nebeneffekt der Lokalisierung" ist. Wozu es gut sein soll habe ich nicht erfahren. ...

Is your system up-to-date? Do you have installed all recent updates and patches for the operating system and the device drivers, especially the graphic driver.

Press this button and paste the info into your next forum post.   What has been changed on your system before the error occur? Is your catalog located on Microsoft's OneDrive?

In the Select Catalog dialog box, select the catalog which is corrupt and check "Test integrity of this catalog" option. Try to open backup catalogs.

You wrote in a former post that you've import the images from a backuped catalog into a new catalog. So it's possible that the keywords don't be assgin on import. And you've done the import as Admin. Now you're logged in as a normal user. I'm not sure if that can be the issue.   In a first step try to reset the preferences of Lightroom Classic:  How to reset Lightroom Classic preferences (adobe.com) It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:  https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/preference-file-and-other-file-locations.html   The next step should be that you renamed the folder in which the recent catalog is stored, e.g. NameOfTheFolder.old.  Create a new folder for the catalog. Please be aware of the appropriate access rights!! Then restore the catalog from the backup. I would try the same as you used for the import. Unzip the file and copy the lrcat - file into the new created folder. Start Lightroom and open this restored catalog.
